Grants Awarded in 2026
The Foundation’s three, pre-pandemic grantmaking priority areas remain the same:
- The empowerment of low-income women to improve their lives after a significant life challenge
- The promotion of philanthropy with an emphasis on engaging underrepresented communities (ex: women, youth, and communities of color)
- The support of media campaigns fostering stronger environmental policy development
