The foundation continues to hold substantial equity in and enjoy a strong relationship with the Kellogg Company, both of which are based in Battle Creek, Michigan. However, the foundation is governed by an independent board of trustees and receives income from the W.K. Kellogg Trust, which was set up by W.K. Kellogg.
