What is the name of the foundation established by the co-founder of General Motors, Charles Stewart Mott?

The foundation established by General Motors co-founder Charles Stewart Mott is the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation.

Mott created it in 1926 after building his fortune through the Weston-Mott Company, which manufactured wire wheels and axles. General Motors acquired a major stake in Weston-Mott, and Mott later became a GM director and one of its significant shareholders.

The foundation initially supported charitable, educational, and community projects in Flint, Michigan, where Mott served three terms as mayor. In 1935, he and educator Frank Manley helped develop Flint community schools, an early model for connecting schools with neighborhood services.

A common mix-up is confusing this organization with the former General Motors Foundation. The Mott Foundation is a separate family foundation that later expanded its grantmaking internationally, including work involving education, civil society, and the environment.
