Ideal Applicant
Nonprofits working on civic engagement, voter education, democracy reform, investigative journalism, or related civil rights work that can use general operating support and operate at local, state, or national scale.
Good Fit
- • Mission aligned with democracy, civic participation, journalism, or civil rights.
- • Request for general operating support rather than narrowly restricted project funding.
- • Organizational capacity to manage mid‑range grants (typical awards range from a few thousand to around $100–125K).
- • Presence or program activity in California or Washington, D.C., is a plus given observed funding concentrations.
Geography
Observed grants span 20 states with a majority of dollars outside the foundation's home state, though California receives the largest single-state share (about 40%).
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 102 distinct independent recipients across multiple sectors and a modest concentration by dollars (top five ≈25%), indicating a broad recipient set rather than a tiny closed circle.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of entry exists: 32 new recipients in the latest year and visible application guidance plus a named program officer and mailing/phone contact, so unfamiliar applicants appear plausible to join the portfolio.
