Rockefeller Foundation

 

About

Since its establishment in 1913, the Rockefeller Foundation has sought to identify and attack at their source the underlying causes of human suffering. The Foundation pioneered the frontier of global philanthropy and continues to find and fund solutions to many of the world’s most intractable challenges.

The Rockefeller Foundation attempts to harness the creative forces of globalization, supporting breakthrough solutions to 21st century challenges. This is smart globalization: ensuring that the opportunities unleashed by globalization are accessible to more people, more fully, in more places — and that poor and vulnerable people are equipped to seize them. The Foundation operates both within the United States and around the world. The Foundation’s efforts are overseen by an independent board of trustees and managed by its president through a staff drawn from scholarly, scientific, and professional disciplines.
