Mission

Mountain Philanthropies works with organizations that pursue equity and social justice in our country and around the world, and who are leading innovation to address complex problems. In particular, we support activities that seek to restore and amplify the voices of communities victimized by racial and political injustice.

Voting and Civic Participation

We seek to restore, protect, and activate all voices in U.S. democracy.

Criminal Justice Reform

We seek fairness and accountability within the justice system  – from prosecutors to sheriffs to police.

Climate Change

We help under-resourced but consequential actors fight climate change. 

Forced Migration

We resource humanitarian and legal services to help refugees and asylum seekers when they are most vulnerable – often when they are on the move.
