Ben & Jerry Foundation
Category: Social Change
DescriptionThe Foundation's Grassroots Organizing for Social Change Program offers general or project support to nonprofits throughout the United States to further social and environmental justice and to support sustainable and just food systems. The Foundation focuses on the types of activities and strategies an organization uses for creating social change rather than on the specific issues the organization is addressing. Priority strategies include: community and ally outreach, leadership development, constituent empowerment and decision making, popular education, root cause analysis, power analysis, campaign development, mobilizing constituents and allies, coalition building, and direct action. The Foundation will only consider proposals from grassroots, constituent-led organizations that are using community-organizing and base-building strategies to accomplish their goals. Additional information can be found on the Web site.
