In 1968, F. Newell Bohnett founded the Violet R. Bohnett Foundation in memory of his mother
who passed away that year. Newell Bohnett desired, through this Foundation, to further his
mother's heritage of the loving of her family and community. She was a devoted wife, mother,
grandmother and dynamic volunteer in Santa Barbara, California community where she lived.

In 1992, Nada V. Bohnett, the founder's wife of 46 years, passed away and was added to the
name of the Foundation. (The full name of the Foundation is "The Violet R. and Nada V.
Bohnett Memorial Foundation") Nada, whose name means "Hope," faithfully shared the hope she
had found through her faith in Jesus Christ to many people throughout her lifetime. She also
made a lasting impact upon her husband, children, grandchildren and the Hawaiian island
community where she spent the last 24 years of her life.
These two women were wonderful encouragers of their family and community. So it is fitting
that the Foundation that has been established in their name would be devoted to "promoting
hope and help for today's families."
Since 1990, Jamie Bohnett, Newell's son has been directing the Foundation. He and his wife,
Cindy, have been involved since that time in conducting parenting classes, small groups for
men, women and couples and forums for fathers. Jamie and Cindy, married in 1974 have four
children and reside in Redmond, Washington. Their passion is to encourage and equip men and
women to help them build lasting legacies in their families which will positively impact
generations to come.
