Our Logo

It was with a sense of optimism that at our inaugural meeting of the first Board, on Nov. 15, 2001, that the oak tree, as symbolized by its acorn and leaves, was chosen as the official logo of the new foundation.

The oak was not only a significant portion of the frame on which our collective heritages developed and flourished, but to this day it remains symbolic of desirable characteristics:

a sense of continuance through time - perpetuity
longevity - the wisdom of time – with many specimens living for centuries
strength / dependability – emanating from its reliability as a strong, hard, heavy, rot-resistant wood
a sense of growth and potential to be realized – 'from the tiny acorn the mighty oak will grow'

In parallel, our Foundation is laying down the seeds today - the fruits of which will be the yield of generations to come.
