Welcome!

Dear Readers,

Welcome to the Agape Foundation’s official blog, where every week you will read about turning ideas into action.

Because that’s essentially what we do.

Since 1979, the Agape Foundation has funded and supported radical, grassroots social change for peace and justice in California. We are fundraisers, grantmakers, and activists who want an end to systematic oppression in our world. Who demand accountability from institutions responsible for violence, while working together to create our own peaceful solutions. And we seek to build community with all individuals and organizations that share this commitment with us.

Some of the topics we intend to blog about include:
  • Information and updates about our grantmaking
  • A list of our latest grantees
  • Issues in the peace and social justice movement
  • Trends in social change philanthropy and the non profit sector
  • Grassroots fundraising and other organizing tools for activists
We're open to more ideas. In fact, go ahead and add a comment below on what you'd like to see us talk about!

We hope our blog will be interesting, informative, and helpful to you and your work. We encourage you to send us your thoughtful comments, feedback and new ideas, as well as share our blog with your networks! This blog is a forum and a resource.
