About India Partners
A single $412,900 grant to Moody Radio for anti-human trafficking and development programs stands out in India Partners’ recent record. The foundation’s grantmaking is built around work with children and families suffering in poverty in India, especially programs tied to trafficking prevention, survivor care, child sponsorship, education, widow support, and emergency relief. Recent awards show a strong preference for direct-service organizations and programmatic support, including multi-year support for anti-trafficking and vocational training through International Sanctuary in Irvine, California. Other large grants point to a recurring commitment to media, ministry, and service delivery as vehicles for child and widow support. India Partners also funded Barefoot Media Ministries for child and widow development programs and gave to 247 Media Ministries for anti-human trafficking and development programs. The pattern suggests a funder that supports practical interventions across protection, recovery, and economic stabilization rather than a single program model. Its stated philosophy emphasizes vocational training, workforce development, survivor-centered support, and livelihood assistance, which aligns with the types of grants appearing in the recent record.
What India Partners Funds
Anti-human trafficking is one of the clearest threads in India Partners’ giving. In 2025, the foundation awarded $53,949 to International Sanctuary for anti-human trafficking and vocational training, following a $48,341 grant in 2024 for the same purpose. It also gave $412,900 to Moody Radio for anti-human trafficking and development programs. Child and widow support is another recurring area. India Partners provided $82,203 to Barefoot Media Ministries for child and widow development programs, then followed with a $7,960 grant to the same organization in 2025. The foundation also funded The Thomas Foundation for child and widow development programs with $11,315. Its portfolio also includes media-based and ministry-based partners such as 247 Media Ministries, which received $54,050 in 2024 and $15,000 in 2025 for anti-human trafficking and development programs.
How India Partners Gives
India Partners’ recent grants cluster around a median size of $30,375, with a lower quartile of $10,830 and an upper quartile of $53,974. The spread includes both six-figure and small program grants, indicating flexibility in award size. Several recipients appear in more than one year, including Moody Radio, International Sanctuary, Barefoot Media Ministries, and 247 Media Ministries, which points to recurring support rather than one-time awards. The foundation does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments. Its giving is programmatic and direct-service oriented, with a national grant footprint from its Eugene, Oregon headquarters.
