Connected Organizations Advancing Our Mission

Over time, Charlie Shor launched sister organizations that focus deeply on specific parts of our mission, from epilepsy wellness to the economic forces shaping the American middle class. These organizations operate independently, but they share common roots, leadership, and a commitment to practical, research-driven solutions. Together with the Foundation, they expand our impact from grantmaking into research, education, and direct support.

BCDI

The Blue Collar Dollar Institute conducts research on how global manufacturing policies affect America’s middle class. By analyzing the economic forces that shape opportunity, BCDI works to inform policy conversations and promote pathways toward a stronger, more resilient workforce.

EWA

Epilepsy Wellness Advocates develops research-backed tools, resources, and community programs that support individuals living with epilepsy. Guided by medical data and real-world experience, EWA helps people better understand their condition and improve overall quality of life.

CSF

The Charles L. Shor Foundation advances initiatives that support neurological wellness, economic opportunity, and community resilience. Through strategic partnerships and philanthropic investment, CSF works to improve lives and expand access to health, knowledge, and opportunity.
