New Work

The organization works with funders to direct resources to people building powerful, thriving communities. It invests in leaders, organizations, and movements using diverse and leading-edge strategies to pursue transformational change. Established in 2014 as a philanthropic intermediary to connect funders directly with powerful grassroots movements, Borealis's work is grounded in the knowledge that communities know what they need to thrive. Borealis moves resources and shifts power to those most impacted by injustice so they can build toward their vision of safety, joy, and liberation. The award supports Borealis's general operations.
