The Fund for Idaho is committed to overcoming the rising tide of intolerance and divisiveness in Idaho by supporting organizations working for compassion and justice. Through inclusive and diverse decision-making involving both activists and donors, the Fund aims to tap into the wisdom and experience necessary for strategic grant decisions, fostering community resilience and promoting fairness, integrity, and environmental integrity.
The Persistence Fund Grant program by Fund for Idaho aims to support community-based and grassroots activists in advancing policy changes that promote fairness, integrity, and compassion for all Idahoans. It emphasizes the importance of engaging those affected by problems in finding solutions and encourages collaboration on common issues. The grant focuses on strategic issue and policy change work in human rights and environmental integrity, offering matching funds of up to $7,500 for organizations working against policy changes that threaten immigrant rights, health care access, disability rights, and cause environmental degradation.
