Overview
Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors is one of the world’s largest philanthropic service organizations. This grant will provide continued support for organizational capacity development for EdReports — the group’s new independent entity that reviews yearlong math and English curricula focusing on indicators of high quality, such as alignment with the Common Core State Standards and support of deeper learning. These reviews help the teachers, principals, and state and district leaders responsible for purchasing materials make more informed decisions, supporting the goal of fostering "smart demand" for deeper learning instructional materials.

Grants to this Grantee
for the Climate Emergency Collaboration Group
This grant supports the Climate Emergency Collaboration Group, a collaborative platform to bring together donors and leaders from the field to coordinate strategies, prioritize gaps, and deploy funds rapidly, based on the greatest need, in the lead-up to COP27 and beyond. (Substrategy: Multilateral)
for support of the New Pluralists
The New Pluralists, a fiscally sponsored project of Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors, seeks a paradigm shift in how Americans relate to each other across our differences. To do that, the collaborative hopes to catalyze a sea change in the mindsets, values, skills, and behaviors we embrace as individuals, and the behaviors we enact in our institutions and communities, in order to foster a bigger sense of “we” and equip all of us to work well together in a more pluralistic democracy.
for the Just Transition Fund
The Just Transition Fund creates economic opportunities for the frontline communities and workers hardest hit by the transition away from coal. The fund makes grants to help communities create 21st-century jobs, provides technical assistance to empower local leaders to act, and brings coal community leaders with economic and workforce development expertise to state and federal climate negotiating tables.
