Welcome to
THE CAIRNS FOUNDATION
The Cairns Foundation was established in 2003 by James L. Cairns. The Cairns Foundation's mission is to identify creative students with entrepreneurial potential, then for their own benefit and for that of the community, to mentor and financially help them achieve technical and commercial success.
To fulfill its mission the Foundation co-sponsors an annual Innovation Challenge wherein students from local colleges and universities pitch their ideas to a group of potential investors and compete for cash prizes and ongoing business-incubator support. It's a winning experience for the community and all those who participate, not only those who take away prizes. Additionally, Cairns Foundation members mentor inventors of all ages.
