  The Wayne Foundation is a charity organization run by Thomas Wayne and Wayne Enterprises. For a time, Bruce Wayne lived in its office building’s penthouse to be closer to the city.

  The Wayne Foundation funds medical scientific research and helps people with research by providing facilities and training.

  Bruce’s first action as head of the Wayne Foundation, was the creation of a new program called “Victims, Inc. Program” (VIP), which would help the victims of crimes who need financial support.

  The Martha Wayne Foundation is a patron and supporter of arts, families, education, and tolerance. The foundation supports and helps to run a number of orphanages and free schools, and provides teachers for those who have learning difficulties. Artists can apply for grants from the foundation to help support them in furthering the arts. The foundation sponsors companies like Family Finders. Family Finders is an organization directed at finding lost people and uniting families. The Martha Wayne Foundation also sponsors and runs dozens of soup kitchens within the city.

    Isn’t it canon in some of the comic books that Gotham is legitimately cursed and it doesn’t matter how much charity and good works Wayne does, it’s just always going to be bad?

      That and also reasonable corruption. You can only do so much within the system when the system is rotten.

    I always wonder what social service is going to stop Darkseid etc.

      There are plenty of superpower-through-techology heroes in DC, so a solid public education would probably do it.

      If you’re working on a “Batman can stop Darkseid alone” theory, then it logically follows that any well-trained and equipped group could also stop Darkseid, probably better than Batman can. So the priority should be that.

    It’s not just Lemmy but Reddit too, I have a feeling it must just be people who have only seen the movies. I’m not sure if the animated shows showed any of his philanthropy, but there are certainly examples of it throughout the comics.

  Mass murdering, those are responsible for cutting public assistance. Programs is a legitimate superhero power don’t knock it.
