The Diamond Foundation is a private charitable family foundation first endowed by its founders, Jack and Gordon Diamond in 1984.

The Foundation also allocates a significant portion of its funds to Vancouver-area organizations that target young people who do not have the same opportunities as other youth to develop to their fullest potential or to participate in community life (Youth Initiatives Program) and other special interest projects that improve the quality of people’s lives in Greater Vancouver.
