Overview
The BuildUS Fund is a donor collaborative fiscally sponsored by Amalgamated Charitable Foundation.

Grants to this Grantee
for support of the Groundwork Fund
The Groundwork Fund, a fiscally sponsored project of the Amalgamated Foundation, supports local community organizers working in overlooked regions of the country — the Deep South, Appalachia, and the Plains. Working closely with partners on the ground, Groundwork aims to support frontline organizing, shift civic narratives, and develop local civic leaders. Groundwork believes that local grassroots organizing is the most effective way to build power for those historically excluded and to secure justice, equity, and democracy for all. This support will position Groundwork to deepen its efforts.
