Today, the Hummingbird Charitable Foundation, a nonprofit organization founded by former second lady of the United States Karen Pence, announces the first three organizations to be honored for their work to help our nation’s heroes who live in Indiana.

Karen Pence talked to FOX59’s Angela Ganote about the foundation and its goals. The name comes from her codename when she served as second lady–“hummingbird.”

Karen Pence, the former second lady of the United States and the former first lady of Indiana, is thrilled to announce the launch of Hummingbird Charitable Foundation, an initiative dedicated to recognizing and supporting charities making significant impacts in Indiana communities.
