A Letter from Our President and CEO
Recently a selection of writings by Harry Bradley, one of our founders, was brought to my
attention. Harry’s thoughts, which were put to paper in the 1950s, described how he and his
brother Lynde started the Allen-Bradley Company and how their values enabled it to become a
remarkable American success story.
“Lynde wanted, and so did I, people who thought of their
jobs not in terms of paychecks, but as the end result of their
own work. We were small, but we were building for more
than a day, and for more than a year. To us, every job was
an open door to the high ground of human freedom and
general happiness,” he wrote.
Harry also shared his views on freedom, human dignity
and American principles. “A nation’s progress is measured
by the character of its people, and not by the promises of
its politicians. It seems hard for politicians to comprehend
one simple truth: There is no source of national income,
but the work of the people,” he observed.
Harry Bradley

While Harry and Lynde lived in a very different era, their core principles and aspirations the ability to improve society through education, innovation, and free markets; the role of
government; and the application of the Constitution - continue to be at the heart of our country’s
current philosophical debate.
At such a critical time in our history, I know they would be pleased that the principles of American
exceptionalism they so firmly believed in continue to be advanced every day through The Lynde
and Harry Bradley Foundation and its remarkable grant recipients.
In 2019, the Foundation awarded nearly $42.1 million to local and national organizations that
are aligned with our guiding principles to protect and defend Constitutional order; strengthen
the free market system; support educational efforts to give citizens the character, habits, and
knowledge to succeed; and to cultivate a vibrant civil society.
The Bradley brothers cared deeply about Milwaukee and Wisconsin and contributed generously
to local organizations. In keeping with this commitment, the Foundation awarded $10,325,000 in
grants last year to 92 organizations throughout their hometown and state that are focused on arts
and culture, communities and families, and education.
Our grant recipients are undertaking some of the most courageous, innovative and thoughtful
approaches to solving local and national challenges. I encourage you to learn more about how they
are transforming lives, bettering communities, and defending freedom.

 The past year also marked a significant chapter in the
Foundation’s history with a move from Milwaukee’s
eastside to downtown. The new location reaffirms
our dedication to the city and is a perfect fit for the
Foundation’s mission to restore, strengthen, and
protect the principles and institutions of American
exceptionalism.
With a renewed focus, we look forward to advancing the
Foundation’s mission by supporting organizations that
strengthen the fabric of society, just as Lynde and Harry
Bradley did so many years ago.

Sincerely,

Rick Graber, President & CEO, The Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation

 Our Philanthropic Legacy
In 1903, brothers Lynde and Harry Bradley launched an
endeavor in Milwaukee that would have a profound impact
on both the local community and the nation. Through
ingenuity, hard work, risk-taking, and compassion, they
built a business that eventually became the Allen-Bradley
Company, a leading electronic and radio components
manufacturer. In 1985, the Allen-Bradley Company was
sold to Rockwell International. A portion of the proceeds
of that sale provided the initial funding for The Lynde and
Harry Bradley Foundation.
Lynde and Harry Bradley believed in freedom and in the richness of community and culture
that are the basis of a well-lived life. The Bradley Foundation seeks to further those beliefs by
supporting the study, defense, and practice of the individual initiative and ordered liberty that
lead to prosperity, strong families, and vibrant communities. So far, The Bradley Foundation
has awarded over $1 billion in grants to almost 2,000 nonprofit organizations. This includes
organizations supporting vibrant community life in Milwaukee and throughout Wisconsin,
as well as organizations committed to preserving and defending the traditions of representative
government and private enterprise that enable America to flourish.

Our Vision, Mission and Guiding Principles
Steadfastly adhering to the principles and examples of its namesakes, Lynde and Harry Bradley,
The Bradley Foundation envisions a nation invigorated by the principles and institutions that
uphold our unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
To further this vision, The Bradley Foundation pursues a mission to restore, strengthen, and
protect the principles and institutions of American exceptionalism.

The Foundation has articulated the following guiding principles to
inform its grantmaking:
•  Fidelity to the Constitution, with its principles of limited
government, federalism, separation of powers, and
individual liberties;
•  Commitment to free markets that allow for private enterprise,
entrepreneurship, and voluntary exchange within the rule of law;
•  Commitment to the fundamental institutions of civil society that
cultivate individuals capable of self-governance; and
•  Dedication to the formation of informed and capable citizens.

 Additional 2019 Bradley Supported Programs
In addition to grant making, The Bradley Foundation promotes its grant recipients, highlights
research and scholarship aligned with its guiding principles, and facilitates discussion on ideas
that advance freedom and free enterprise. Here are some highlights from 2019:
16th Annual Bradley Prizes – The Bradley Prizes honor individuals whose outstanding
achievements reflect The Bradley Foundation’s mission to restore, strengthen and protect the
principles and institutions of American exceptionalism. Winners, who each receive a stipend of
$250,000, were chosen by a selection committee that reviewed nearly 200 nominations. On
May 7th, 2019, in Washington, DC, the Foundation and more than 375 attendees celebrated the
following distinguished recipients:

Roger Kimball

Janice Rogers Brown

James Grant

Editor and Publisher of
The New Criterion;
President and Publisher of
Encounter Books; and author

Former U.S. Circuit Judge of the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the
District of Columbia Circuit

Founder and Editor of Grant’s
Interest Rate Observer and author

 2019 Bradley Symposium – In conjunction
with the Prizes celebration, The Bradley
Foundation convened prominent intellectuals for
a symposium on “The State of the Constitution.”
Held at The Heritage Foundation, panelists
addressed ways to strengthen our constitutional
republic and restore America’s promise.
Watch the 2019 Bradley Symposium here.

2019 Bradley Forum – Bradley Forums bring together distinguished scholars and opinion leaders
from organizations supported by The Bradley Foundation to provide informative and engaging
discussions on opportunities to advance freedom and free enterprise.
This year a forum was held at the American Legislative Exchange Council’s annual meeting in Austin,
Texas, to provide a critical and timely conversation on the negative impact of environmental, social
and governance issues on the free market system and how state policies can help mitigate the threat.

Bradley Prizes Reception – In 2019,
The Bradley Foundation held its first-ever
reception on Capitol Hill at The Library
of Congress. Hosted in partnership with
The Heritage Foundation, the reception was
an opportunity for policymakers, intellectuals,
and opinion leaders to meet Bradley Prize
recipients and learn more about The Bradley
Foundation’s mission. Remarks were delivered
by Senator Pat Toomey, a former member of the
Foundation’s Board of Directors, and Edwin J.
Feulner, Jr., founder of The Heritage Foundation.
