The Foundation is deeply involved in advocacy and speaks out publicly against injustices, which is why we are cited and mentioned in nation-wide media outlets on a weekly basis.
Furthermore, our Ruderman White Papers are on the forefront of bringing previously undiscussed issues to the national conversation and to the public consciousness.
The Foundation maintains close working relationships with its program partners and grantees. Unlike some other foundations, it does not accept unsolicited applications for support.The Foundation issues an invitation to partner only after a thorough analysis indicates shared vision, innovation, organizational strength, and a willingness to closely collaborate.
