What other programming languages have established foundations like this? The other one I know of is the Python Software Foundation.

The Perl Foundation (https://www.perlfoundation.org/) has existed for many years. I've been a board member for a year or so.

We began life primarily to support the YAPC (Yet Another Perl Conference) community-run conferences, but now we also support development of the language itself.
