Proteus
Fund connects philanthropy to the frontlines of social
justice. We strive to advance the interconnected goals of racial,
gender, queer and disability justice and an inclusive, fully
representative democracy. To do our work effectively and with
significant impact, Proteus Fund creates dynamic relationships
between progressive philanthropists, movement leaders, and other
allies that go far beyond transactional grantmaking. Our trusted
position among funders and field actors enables us to support, both
through collaborative grantmaking and other efforts, a broad array
of strategies to achieve social justice victories. Our donor
collaboratives are best-in-class models for bridging responsive
philanthropy and cutting-edge social justice movements for deeper
impact, aligning resources to address critical needs, and shaping
strategy alongside our partners. Through our fiscal sponsorship
program, Proteus Fund partners with initiatives which play a
powerful role in the larger ecosystem for social change, providing
them with tailored and comprehensive organizational support.
To date, Proteus Fund, and its affiliated 501c4 organization,
the Proteus Action League, have distributed $250 million in grants,
and provided other essential tools to support activists, advocates,
networks, coalitions, and issue-specific campaigns at the local,
state, and national level. Proteus Fund is headquartered in New
York City, with offices in Amherst, Massachusetts. Our staff is
based across the entire United States.
