About Us.
The Wilkie Family has called the Sacramento area home for nearly 70 years. Dean, Joy and Robyn have lived their lives full of love, family, friends, travel, and giving back. Having recently retired from VARIS, a nationally recognizable healthcare auditing organization they created 20 years ago, they wanted to focus on making the community in which they live better for generations to come.
We believe in the power of community-driven solutions to create lasting, positive change. Our family foundation invests in the communities that have shaped us, supporting initiatives that foster opportunity and innovation. Through grants to nonprofits, local organizations, and community leaders, we strive to address critical needs and drive positive transformation. Guided by integrity, openness, and measurable outcomes, we are building a legacy of progress and a brighter future.
