Fund for Constitutional Government

The Financial Accountability & Corporate Transparency (FACT) Coalition is an alliance of more than 100 state, national, and international organizations working to advance corporate and financial transparency reforms and promote a fair and accountable international tax system. With this grant, the coalition will advance the achievement of FACT’s strategic priorities and will allow FACT to continue its advocacy work; conduct research; engage legal advice in regulatory processes; conduct outreach to corporate and investor allies; and engage the media to highlight these anti-corruption and tax justice issues. (Strategy: Inclusive Governance)

The Peace and Security Funders Group (PSFG), a project of the Fund for Constitutional Government, is an association of private and public foundations, operating foundations, charitable trusts, grantmaking programs, and individual philanthropists who make grants that contribute to peace and global security. PSFG's mission is to help facilitate the exchange of information and ideas, foster collaboration, and provide educational opportunities for their members including encouraging new funders to join the field. Organizational Effectiveness funds would help PSFG take advantage of the arrival of its new Executive Director to refresh its strategic plan and work with its advisory board to develop a plan to implement the updated strategy.

This meeting sponsorship grant will help fund the Peace and Security Funders Group to convene their membership for a meeting in Washington to explore the ways in which strengthening Congress as an institution could help them realize their substantive policy goals.
