FoxRock Cares

We are aware of a potential scam involving fraudulent emails purported to be from Robert Hale or the Hale family related to charitable grants to nonprofits.  Be advised that the Hale family does not request or distribute funding through email or the internet, nor does it request personal or other confidential information.

If you have doubts concerning the authenticity of any communications claiming to be from or associated with FoxRock Cares, Robert Hale, Granite Telecommunications, LLC, or related Hale family entities, please email legal@foxrockproperties.com. This notifies us of potentially fraudulent activity, allowing us to investigate and take corrective action if deemed necessary.  Keep in mind that due to the volume of inquiries we sometimes receive, we may not respond to every notice.

It is unfortunately the case that scams taking advantage of the Hale family’s philanthropic efforts have been increasing in frequency, and some of these fraudulent schemes can be highly sophisticated. Despite the tireless efforts of our security team and law enforcement to put an end to such scams, the reality is that not all of them can be prevented.

Be advised that Robert Hale and the Hale Family, Granite Telecommunications, LLC, Granite Gives Back, LLC, FoxRock Properties LLC, FoxRock Cares, their employees, grantees, or partner organizations do not:

• Request administrative fees for awarding a grant
• Host internet lotteries or offer prizes of any kind through email, postal mail, telephone, fax, or in person
• Request registration fees for conferences or meetings
• Request information about bank accounts or other private information
• Have memberships or request fees for memberships
• Approach individuals in person offering grant opportunities
• Offer investment opportunities
