The Searle Freedom Trust
Category: Public Policy
DescriptionThe Trust, formed from the financial holdings of the former pharmaceutical Company, focuses its grantmaking on programs and projects that foster research and education on public policy issues that affect individual freedom and economic liberty. Through its grantmaking, the Foundation seeks to develop solutions to the country’s most important and challenging domestic policy issues. Topics of interest include tax and budget policy, cost-benefit analysis of regulatory practices and proposals, the workings of the legal system, environmental policy, social welfare reform, and K-12 and higher education policy. The Foundation invests primarily in scholarship that results in the publication of books, journal articles, and policy papers. The Trust also provides funding for public interest litigation and supports outreach to the public through a variety of forums, including sponsorship of research conferences and seminars, film and journalism projects, and new media initiatives. Grant proposals should be submitted online. The board meets three times per year. Additional information can be found on the Web site.
