The Niswonger Foundation was founded by businessman and philanthropist, Scott M. Niswonger. Unlike most private foundations, the Niswonger Foundation was established as an operating foundation with its own programs and projects. The Foundation is also approved as a charitable organization.
The Foundation is leaving our mark in this region with the Niswonger Scholars. We know of no other Scholarship and Leadership program like ours in the nation.
The Niswonger Foundation was established in 2001 to make a positive and sustainable difference in education in Northeast Tennessee.
The school partnership program provides support for Pre-K – 12 and higher education initiatives.
Scott Niswonger was born in Van Wert, Ohio where he learned to fly, soloing on his 16th birthday.

The Niswonger Foundation was established in 2001 to make a positive and sustainable difference in education in Northeast Tennessee. This dream was envisioned by Scott M. Niswonger, who founded Landair Transport, Inc. and Forward Air Corporation. These companies were the first two Greeneville-based companies to be taken public in the history of Greene County, Tennessee. Jointly, the companies have combined annual revenue of over one-billion-dollars and employ more than 5000 people.
