About Sheth Global Foundation

A $1.11 million grant to The Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta Inc for fund new DAF and operational support is the largest recent award on file for Sheth Global Foundation Inc, and it highlights a funder that combines major structural support with a long-running commitment to marketing scholarship. Much of the foundation’s work centers on academic institutions and professional associations in marketing, consumer research, and marketing science, with grants that back operating costs, conferences, doctoral training, and research recognition. That pattern fits its stated purpose: promoting knowledge creation, knowledge recognition, and knowledge dissemination with global reach and societal focus. The foundation also supports named award programs and scholar-development initiatives across the field. Recent grants include support for the American Marketing Association and the Association for Consumer Research, as well as funding tied to doctoral competitions, dissertation awards, early-career mentoring, and research competitions. These awards and programs show a grantmaker that is not limited to one-off sponsorships; it repeatedly channels resources into the institutions and mechanisms that shape emerging marketing scholars. The result is a portfolio that blends general operating support with targeted academic recognition and training.
