ABOUT THE FOUNDATION
The Schooner Foundation believes in the fundamental right to a life with dignity, opportunity, and
access to resources.
Founded in 1998, the Foundation seeks to advance human rights by leveraging funds and
resources where there is the greatest need and opportunity, both domestically and
internationally.
We identify and invest in innovative organizations led by teams that demonstrate exemplary
character and accountability. The Foundation supports initiatives across the spectrum of human
rights, from global health equity and investigative journalism, to campaign finance reform and
peace & security. With a deep commitment to partnership rooted in trust, integrity, and respect,
we work with our grantees to provide guidance, advocate on issues, and foster strategic
collaborations.
