Description
The Campbell Foundation’s Community Engagement program provides funding to organizations that promote equity and empower individuals to participate in shaping their communities. The program prioritizes efforts that increase access to quality education, economic opportunity, food security, community justice, and affordable housing, especially for low-income and vulnerable populations. Funding supports both immediate impact and longer-term systemic change, with a focus on community-driven solutions and racial equity. The Foundation has a special interest in projects located in California (notably Fresno, Kern, Kings, San Francisco, or Tulare counties), Maryland (Dorchester, Wicomico, Worcester, Somerset), and Pennsylvania (Lancaster and York), but is open to proposals from across the US and globally (with some restrictions).
