    About Our American Future Foundation

    A single $91.5 million grant to Our American Future Action anchors this foundation’s recent giving and shows the scale at which it works. Our American Future Foundation pairs that large charitable award with a smaller, parallel pattern of general-support grants to policy and advocacy groups focused on healthcare access, reproductive rights, worker power, and economic justice. The foundation’s recent grant list also includes support for organizations working on Medicaid preservation, abortion access, early childhood education, family supports, and legal advocacy. Its grantmaking is concentrated in the District of Columbia, with all listed recipients located in the United States and many awards made to groups in DC and nearby policy ecosystems. The foundation’s profile points to a public charity funding broad, portfolio-style work rather than a single issue or one-off campaign. In the recent grants, recipients range from health policy organizations to family and education groups, suggesting a mix of issue-area and coalition support. Our American Future Foundation’s structure also includes a related award to Our American Future Action for expanding economic opportunity, reinforcing a focus on policy and advocacy as tools for low-income communities and economically disadvantaged individuals.

    What Our American Future Foundation Funds

    In healthcare access, the foundation gave $25,000 to Consumers for Affordable HC for general support and $20,000 to Committee to Protect HealthCa for general support. Those grants sit alongside larger support for policy work tied to Medicaid preservation and broader health access. Family and early childhood priorities also appear in the 2025 awards. Maryland Family Network Inc received $60,000 for general support, while Maine Childrens Alliance received $20,000 and Maine Womens Lobby Ed Fund received $20,000, both for general support. The presence of these groups points to family supports and child-focused advocacy within the portfolio. The foundation also funds reproductive rights and legal advocacy. Southwest Womens Law Center received $20,000 for general support, and Towards Justice of Colorado received $35,000 for general support. Together with the health-related awards, these grants show a preference for policy-oriented organizations rather than direct-service programs alone.

    How Our American Future Foundation Gives

    The median recent grant size is $4,725,000, and the p25 and p75 are the same, which indicates a highly clustered distribution around one large award size. The recent record is also mixed: one very large grant in 2025, one matching-sized award in 2024, and a set of much smaller general-support grants in 2025. That pattern suggests a combination of major strategic funding and smaller portfolio grants. The foundation is a public charity, not a funder of individuals, and it does not make program-related investments. The available data shows repeated support for related organizations in the same policy network, including Our American Future Action across two years.
