The Rockefeller Foundation seeks to promote the well-being of humanity around the world by addressing the root causes of serious problems. We are interested in funding initiatives that expand opportunities and help ensure that the benefits of globalization are shared more equitably. We seek high-impact ideas that have the potential to make a difference in the lives of large numbers of poor or vulnerable people – and we require some results from such ideas to be measurable within three to five years.

On our web site you will also find links to other philanthropic resources, which you may find helpful in your search for funding.
