About Five Together Foundation C/O Cozen O'Connor
The Five Together Foundation makes a small number of large, strategic grants focused mainly on civic engagement and progressive electoral work, while routing a portion of its giving through intermediary vehicles. Its grants heavily favor national voter mobilization and public affairs efforts, with an outlier gift to international agricultural/educational development. The foundation commonly uses fiscal sponsors and donor-advised channels rather than many direct operating grants.

About Five Together Foundation C/O Cozen O'Connor
Five Together Foundation C/o Cozen O'connor’s largest recent grant was a $1,000,000 award to Movement Voter Fund at the Tides Foundation for general support, a clear signal that the foundation favors large, strategic commitments rather than many small awards. Across its recent grants, it also backed voter-formation and democracy work, youth-serving organizations, and homelessness-related legal advocacy, alongside a smaller set of international and health-related gifts. The foundation’s pattern shows repeated support for the same recipients over multiple years, including Movement Voter Fund at the Tides Foundation, Youth Represent, Coalition for the Homeless, and Jevs Foundation. Those repeated awards suggest a grantmaker that tends to continue relationships once it has identified a fit. Its recent grants also include intermediary channels such as Tides Foundation and Fidelity Investments Charitable Gift Fund, showing comfort with routed philanthropy as part of its giving strategy. While most of the portfolio is U.S.-based, the grant record includes an international education and sustainable agriculture grant to Earth University Foundation, which stands out among the larger domestic civic and human-services commitments.
