Rockefeller Family Fund is a U.S.-based, family-led public charity that initiates, cultivates, and funds strategic efforts to promote a sustainable, just, free, and participatory society.
The grant program from the Rockefeller Family Fund includes three main areas, focusing on supporting initiatives that lead to significant public policy outcomes. Specifically, the Democracy and Power Innovation Fund within this program aims to support research and innovation at the intersection of organizing, civic engagement, and power, with a particular interest in community organizing and its impact on democracy reform and civic engagement, especially in communities of color. The fund wants to enhance understanding and evaluation of strategies that engage communities in active democracy, aiming to build a multi-racial democracy that benefits all. It supports collaborative grantmaking to build a community of leaders from various fields to collectively support efforts towards this aim.
