About Center for Reproductive Rights
The Center for Reproductive Rights Inc. channels most of its recent grantmaking into reproductive rights advocacy and ballot work, with several large awards tied to constitutional amendments and women’s rights and justice. One of its largest recent grants went to Care Inc. in Atlanta, which received $317,045 in 2025 and another $131,360 in 2024 for the same broad purpose. The foundation also backed election-related reproductive-rights campaigns, including a $125,000 grant to Floridians Protecting Freedom in Miami and a $100,000 grant to Kansans for Constitutional Freedom for research on a constitutional amendment. Its recent portfolio includes advocacy organizations, legal and research partners, and groups working on reproductive care access, showing a mix of litigation-adjacent support and campaign-oriented funding. In addition to statewide initiatives, the funder supported organizations serving specific communities, such as Ancient Song Doula Services in Brooklyn and The Afiya Center in Dallas. Leadership is listed as Nancy Northup, and the foundation is a regular funder rather than a donor-advised fund.
