SOUTHERN PARTNERS FUND

Democratic Philanthropy in Action

We appreciate your desire to learn more about our grantmaking process. Anyone wishing to get involved with the process, please subscribe and get notifications of changes and updates. Your time is both valued and welcome.

Overview

Our operating and grantmaking decisions are made by folks who have been impacted by injustice rather than by academics and outside experts. We believe we know more about our communities’ needs than they do. We fund rural community organizations and coalitions in 12 southern states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia.
