About Us
The late Kent Roy Rhoads was an entrepreneur in Southern California and Japan. With the founding of GreenTeaMerchant at the turn of the century, he became a leader in marketing Japanese green tea online. Through his generosity, he annually donated a percent of company profits to causes dear to his heart. The Kent Rhoads Foundation was named to honor his philanthropy.

Mission Statement
The Kent Rhoads Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, is dedicated to fostering Emotional Wellness & Mental Health through the transformative practices of Meditation & Mindfulness. We recognize that rising costs of retreats can place these vital opportunities out of reach for many. Our mission is to provide financial support to meditation practitioners by offering grants to qualified non-profit practice centers, ensuring that individuals of modest financial means can access and benefit from these practices.
