Grantmaking Programs

RSF Social Finance is a non-endowed public charitable organization. We serve our individual and institutional donors by acting as stewards of their charitable funds and by facilitating their philanthropic objectives. Through our donors’ grant recommendations, RSF is able to fund organizations working on a broad range of issue areas supporting economic, environmental, and social sustainability.

Unlike many other foundations, RSF is a non-endowed public charity, and does not accept grant proposals unless they are in accordance with the guidelines for either of the two funds below.
