For more than 46 years, we have centered and been guided by those closest to the pain of injustice, and believe that philanthropy was created to be in service to the movement and work in the pursuit of justice. For us, this is not a far-off goal, it is our everyday work.
With the support of people like you, we have been able to lead the movement for justice across the region. Without you, there is no Seeding Justice.
Be among the first funding partners for groups like Cascade AIDS Project, Black United Fund, Pineros y Campesinos Unidos del Noroeste (PCUN), Center for Intercultural Organizing (now Unite Oregon), Columbia Riverkeeper, Pro-Choice Oregon, and Trans*Ponder. We also funded the legal restoration of many terminated Tribes at a time no one else did. Today, we are funding groups that will be foundational to the movement for justice for years to come.
Open funds to address urgent, critical issues as they have arisen throughout our history, including the Bigotry Fund (1994) for LGBTQ+ rights; our 9/11 Critical Response Grants (2002) to promote peace and fight Islamophobia; our Democracy & Rights Fund (2018); and the Oregon Worker Relief Fund (2020). Today, we are proud to hold the Reproductive Health Equity Fund for abortion care, as well as the Chúush Fund and the Ambo Fund for Tribal water rights.
Supporting nearly 200 non-profits across our region requires more than simply making grants; what Seeding Justice provides our grantees and communities is a full spectrum of care and resources, including coaching, connection, technical assistance, a deep support network, and, of course, funding.

“Seeding Justice does critical work in communities around Oregon to inspire and grow the social justice movement. Being a monthly donor is my small part to ensure this important work has funding it can count on.” –Liz Baxter, Oregon Public Health Institute and former Seeding Justice Foundation Board Member
Our Donor-in-Movement Funds have reimagined donor-advised giving.
“When you establish a Donor-in-Movement Fund at Seeding Justice, you not only contribute to our collective work, but also establish a space in community with other donors in which to be grounded, to continuously learn, and to be only a phone call away when those unpredictable political moments that can define social justice movements occur.” — Rachel Robasciotti, Founder, Robasciotti & Philipson Social Justice Investing
