M Foundation

A Washington State nonprofit funding awareness tools, educational access, and creative community work.

Incorporated April 2026. Three programs. One mission: helping people see clearly enough to choose deliberately.

Currently

In build

Transcend, a 10 to 15 minute interactive iOS experience built to interrupt compulsive screen use through recognition rather than restriction. Currently in MVP development with a team of 10+ contributors.

In planning

First King County Retrovision event planned for Fall/Winter 2026. Analog-only art submission process. Community-curated lineup.

In progress

Federal 501(c)(3) determination via Form 1023-EZ. Active grant applications across awareness technology, mental health innovation, small business development, and community arts.

Programs

01

Awareness and Technology

Funding tools that build psychological agency through behavioral awareness, pattern recognition, and attention sovereignty. Transcend is the first program in this pillar.

02

Educational Access

Putting modern technology and AI tools into under-resourced schools. The first pilot is planned for the rural Alabama elementary school where this work started. Future programming includes venture scholarships for students from communities that historically lack access to early creative or entrepreneurial capital.
