The David R. Luther Foundation was established in 2025 by David R. Luther and his family to help promote and support educational opportunities and choices for students and their families.
The Foundation's genesis began with the establishment of the David '06 and Jamie '06 Luther Laker Sprit Teams Endowed Scholarship Fund at Grand Valley State University. David and Jamie have been long-time supporters of their alma mater, and David is a previous member of the GVSU Young Alumni Council, helping to connect recent graduated to the University through philanthropic events, community outreach, and social events.
David also serves on several alumni advisory boards at various institutions, including serving as an alumni advisor to the Iota-Psi chapter of the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity at Ferris State University.
David also sponsors programs at Forest Hills Norther High School in Grand Rapids, Dutton Christian Schools, and Grand Rapids South Christian High School.
David R. Luther is a native of Grand Rapids, Michigan. He graduated from Forest Hills Northern High School in 1999 and from Grand Valley State University with a BA in International Relations in 2006.
While attending Grand Valley State, David met his future wife, Jamie, who graduated from Otsego High School in 2001, Kalamazoo Community College with an AAAS in Office Management in 2003, and Grand Valley State University with a BS in Public Relations in 2006. David and Jamie have two young children in elementary school.
While at Grand Valley State University, David followed in his father's footsteps by joining Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity. Through his fraternal connections, David developed a love of philanthropy and education. Those two passions meshed into becoming what is today knowns as The David R. Luther Foundation.
