We support the fight to expand multi-racial democracy by protecting and strengthening basic democratic institutions – like the rights to vote and to protest – and finding innovative ways to combat authoritarianism and its assaults on the rights of people of color, immigrants, women, and LGBTQ+ people.

We support community organizing in various forms, including a particular focus on multi-issue, mass organizations and across issues like climate justice, economic justice, and more. With an emphasis on building and sustaining worker power, we focus explicitly on the craft of organizing to help groups we support engage people at scale and in new, innovative ways.

Recognizing that social change depends on strong movement infrastructure, we invest in groups that nurture diverse leadership and in visionaries who develop new ideas and frameworks to address the daunting challenges of our time. We also seek to harness tools and technology of the future so that movement groups remain at the cutting edge of developments that can help advance social justice.

We are building an orientation to a “bigger we” by supporting organizations that are taking novel, creative approaches to organizing, for example, in rural areas and among other populations too-often ignored. That focus also includes faith- and spirituality-based organizations that are fighting for the soul and spirit of our nation.

We support reproductive justice initiatives to help people thrive, cutting edge medical research to promote human flourishing, and additional grants to support our local New York community.
