Grants

Our approach to grantmaking is simple:
trust those closest to the problems to lead the way towards solutions.

Grousemont organizes our grantmaking into four portfolios. This structure supports our long-term investments while also allowing us to meet emerging or urgent needs as they arise. Our four portfolios fall within core funding and learning funding.

Our core funding, which includes the Community Partner and Civic Impact portfolios, is rooted in the foundation’s commitment to supporting the wellbeing of residents across our shared home region. We do this through sustained partnerships with impactful organizations and by making investments in infrastructure that enable communities to thrive.

Our learning funding, which includes the Climate and Environmental Justice and Social Impact portfolios, centers on deepening the foundation’s commitment to equity by actively learning from leaders, communities, and organizations. This leads to intentional relationship-building with new partners and bold grantmaking with existing grantees. We prioritize investments in BIPOC-only organizations.

Our grantees’ work speaks for itself. We are proud to be one of their partners.
