Programs
In response to the undeniable catastrophe of climate change and unprecedented threats to American democracy, human rights, and reproductive health in the US and Latin America, The Overbrook Foundation is committed to a mission of supporting organizations advancing human rights and conserving the natural environment.
Environment
To combat the climate crisis and conserve biodiversity, we work to prevent further deforestation, restore oceans and coastlines, promote behavior change, and support communities living in and near impacted areas, with a particular emphasis on the United States and Latin America.
Human Rights
To protect human rights, we focus on defending democracy and advancing reproductive rights, health, and justice in the United States. Internationally, we provide support for human rights defenders in Latin America.
Grantee Voices
RAZE educates, advocates, and coordinates in rural Arizona communities so they may gain access to civic education, engagement opportunities, and voter registration.
What makes RAZE’s civic engagement work so effective?
Real civic engagement goes beyond the election cycle. People need year-round tools and leadership that are authentic to their lives. When communities are centered and engaged over the long term by organizations they know and trust, they’re more active participants in democracy. At RAZE, we seek to be the trusted community partner that engages rural counties in Arizona for the long run.”
