To support community activists across America and around the world.

The New World Foundation supports community activists across America and around the world. We believe global and national social change begins at the local level. We have helped progressive activists build stronger alliances for social justice, civil rights, and economic and electoral issues since 1954. We have distributed nearly $50,000,000 to grantees over the last 15 years. New World contributes resources to promote democratic action and participation, so people can make a difference for themselves. We are a public charity with a board made up of social activists. Progressives have won tremendous victories over the past 50 years, but workers, women, minorities and the poor, are still under constant attack from radical conservatives in the political and corporate world.
