Only together
Charitable giving and grantmaking alone can't address all of the need that exists in our beloved state. But, coupled with convening, advocacy, and capacity building - a thriving Rhode Island is much closer at hand.
That is why our team works in collaboration with community partners and decision-makers to solve community challenges - over a meal, at cross-sector meetings, and by bringing together subject-specific experts. We also directly elevate community needs to policy makers through research and advocacy efforts, and provide opportunities for Rhode Islanders to engage in civic life.
Strengthening local journalism
Access to reliable news sources is central to a functioning democracy. Through our Civic Leadership Fund, we've supported nonprofits that are strengthening local journalism.
