Making a difference one community at a time

The Poynter Foundation is a non-profit dedicated to uplifting our community through charitable events.

Our Mission

Empowering Single Parents

Strengthening Families  

The Poynter Foundation exists to lift single parents and their children by providing resources, community connections, and financial support. We believe that when a parent thrives, the whole family thrives. And when families thrive, communities grow stronger. 

A Foundation Built on Giving Back

The Poynter Foundation is a non-profit organization committed to creating lasting impact in our community. Through fundraising, partnerships, and our signature annual charity golf event, we support causes that matter.

About Us

Our History

Ryan and Lauren Poynter started The Poynter Foundation with one goal: Helping those who don't normally get the support they need. The Poynter Foundation exists to support single parents in their journey to finish their schooling and make a better life for their family.

Charitable Work

We bring the community together through charitable events, such as our Annual Poynter Scholarship Open, to raise money and support single parents both attending Eastern Washington University and students nationally.
