The Doris Duke Charitable Foundation is a private foundation based in New York City that focuses on supporting the performing arts, environmental conservation, medical research, and the prevention of child abuse and neglect. The foundation was established in 1996 by Doris Duke, an American philanthropist and heiress to the Duke tobacco and energy fortune. It is one of the largest private foundations in the United States.

The foundation makes grants to organizations in three primary areas: the performing arts, the environment, and medical research. In the performing arts, the foundation supports organizations and individuals that create, preserve, and present artistic works in the fields of dance, jazz, theater, and the visual arts. In the environment, the foundation supports projects that conserve and protect biodiversity, promote sustainable land use, and improve community access to the outdoors. Finally, in medical research, the foundation prioritizes projects that seek to improve the health of children by advancing the scientific understanding of childhood diseases, disorders, and conditions.

The foundation also has a special interest in improving the lives of disadvantaged youth. It does this through grant making and through its own initiatives, such as its DukeEngage program, which provides young people with paid service opportunities in the United States and around the world.

In addition to its grant making, the foundation also runs the Doris Duke Charitable Leadership Program, which provides training and support to nonprofit leaders in the performing arts, environment, and medical research fields. The foundation also operates the Doris Duke Conservation Scholars Program, which provides high school and college students with summer internships in conservation and ecology.
