This foundation is heavily focused on climate and environmental justice, especially legal defense and organizing against fossil fuel infrastructure such as pipelines and oil and gas projects. A large share of its giving supports Indigenous-led campaigns, regional river and water protection groups, and legal/technical advocacy that helps frontline communities challenge development projects. It also backs narrative and cultural work—documentary, artivism, and education—that amplifies these fights.
Highly concentrated giving to a small set of repeat grantees, with many grants clustered around the $200,000 level and a few larger anchor gifts. The pattern suggests strategic, campaign-oriented support for core partners rather than broad, distributed funding.
Notable grantees: BOLD EDUCATION FUND INC, WILd Virginia Incorporated, Honor the Earth, Indigenous Environmental Network, Partnership for Civil Justice Fund
