Our story
The Harris Hawk Foundation was founded in Cave Creek, Arizona in 2022. Co-founders Harley and Ashley Samuelson are both from small rural communities and after the birth of their first-born daughter, wished to create a company that could support children’s creativity through valuing children’s literature and community programs.
Harris Hawks have some of the most sophisticated communities of the desert creatures, working together to nurture and educate their young into their small but powerful families, using their intelligence to work in a cohesive group. Like its namesake, The Harris Hawk Foundation values its smaller, underrepresented, communities and focuses on supporting and nurturing its children.
We are located in the vibrant small town of Cave Creek, Arizona, deep in the Sonoran Desert where community is highly valued. By championing a passion for creativity and education in younger children we can impact underrepresented communities and encourage a life-long love of imagination and inventiveness. The Harris Hawk Foundation is where children’s dreams take flight.
