Today, we are proud to share How We Meet This Moment, a new report laying out our strategic roadmap for the years ahead. Our belief in human rights and inherent human dignity is coded into our DNA. From racial justice to disability rights, we remain unwavering in our commitment to protecting democratic values, fundamental freedoms, and inclusive economies that empower people to shape their own futures. Everyone deserves a voice in shaping the rules and tools with which to build better lives and stronger communities. Read the full report at the link in bio. 01 Jan 1970 We consider safeguarding the systems essential to American democracy as the urgent work of our moment. Grantees like @VeteransforallVoters, Pillars of the Community, and @CampaignLegal Center are pursuing vital, nonpartisan work across all 50 states—from increasing civic participation to protecting the right to vote. Learn how at our link in bio. 14 Apr 2026 As we continue to mark nine decades of challenging inequality this year, we're reflecting on our mission, and where we started. Ford’s work has long focused on improving our communities at the local level in the United States and worldwide. At the core of our mission is listening to and learning from our grantees to ground these efforts. Ford has evolved since the early days, as you can see in this photo from our original office in Dearborn, Michigan, 1946. But 90 years has given us the experience to understand better how we can put those founding principles, like safeguarding democracy, into action. Keep following #FordFoundation90 as we share stories throughout the year about our impact, history, and current work to strengthen democracy and justice. 📸: From the Collections of The Henry Ford. Gift of Ford Motor Company. 01 Jan 1970 When differences pull communities apart, the answer isn’t another argument. It's shared action. That’s the vision behind The Brickyard. Marine veteran Jake Harriman is rallying fellow veterans to organize neighborhood service projects, fitness challenges, and potluck dinners. This #VeteransDay, read how nearly 40,000 members across all 50 U.S. states are stepping up to rebuild trust at the link in bio. 01 Jan 1970 We’ve turned a decade of evidence into everyday policy. Our chief innovation officer, @noorainfkhan, and our president, @HeatherKGerken spoke with Inside Philanthropy about our new operational baselines: setting a 50% multiyear general operating floor worldwide and committing 5% of our program funding directly to shared infrastructure to strengthen the entire nonprofit sector. Read more from Mike Scutari at our link in bio. 01 Jan 1970 From generosity to stewardship: Indian American philanthropy is poised for big, bold commitments. A recent report by The Bridgespan Group, in partnership with the Ford Foundation, draws on conversations with more than 60 Indian American donors, nonprofit leaders, and philanthropy advisors. What unites their philanthropy is that they see themselves as a bridge between the country they come from and the country they call home. Rooted in values, driven by a community spirit, and sensitive to the aspirations of the next generation, the report offers new possibilities and a bold imagination for the future of diaspora philanthropy everywhere in the world. Read the full report at our link in bio. 01 Jan 1970 Funders can help organizations do their best work by providing flexible funding over multiple years, helping them build durable institutional strength, and trusting them to lead. Building on a decade of evidence from our BUILD initiative, we are embedding multiyear flexible funding and institutional strengthening as default baseline practices across our entire global portfolio. Swipe through to see how we’re making this our new operational baseline. Read the full announcement via the link in our bio. 09 Nov 2026 Ford Global Fellow Javi Velásquez created the Amazon Rescue Center (CREA), which rescues, rehabilitates, and releases wildlife victims of illegal trafficking. Manatees are endangered aquatic mammals that are highly important to Velásquez’s work to conserve the Peruvian Amazonian coast. #FordGlobalFellows 05 Nov 2026 The recognition of tribal sovereignty redefines who is included in “we the people” John Echohawk, Executive Director of the Native American Rights Fund (NARF) tells us. Uplifting the rights of Indigenous tribes in U.S. federal law is part of the important work the organization has been advancing for decades. This #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth, revisit his #DemocracyReflection at the link in bio. #FordFoundation90 01 Jan 1970 How does a social justice foundation truly meet the moment? In @FortuneMag, @sydddlake explores our new strategy, and explains how flexible, long-term funding empowers grantees to tackle rising autocracy, widening inequality, and fading public trust. Read the full story at the link in bio. 01 Jan 1970 “We are citizens — with a voice, with a vote and with mutual obligations to our neighbors and our children,” writes our president, @heatherkgerken, in Deseret Magazine. (@deseretnews) This U.S. election season, she reflects on how Americans can actively participate in their communities from learning about the issues, checking potentially false information before clicking “like” or “share,” volunteering at the polls, and encouraging others to respect election officials as they carry out a critical, difficult job. Read more at our link in bio. 01 Jan 1970 To meet this moment, we’ve refreshed our strategy, anchored in protecting and strengthening the core principles that sustain democracy and the rule of law. As our president, Heather Gerken, shared in @chronicleofphilanthropy unprecedented global shifts require nothing less. Read more at the link in bio. 01 Jan 1970
