CarEth Foundation
Overview
CarEth Foundation accepts the intrinsic value of all people, and seeks ways to lessen the existing polarization between the powerful and oppressed, which is the major cause of destructive conflict.
CarEth Foundation believes that freedom and implementation of true democracy are essential ingredients for change, which enables us to unite in the common purpose of becoming a global community founded in compassionate peace.
CarEth Foundation seeks to promote a compassionate world of enduring and just peace with social, economic, and political equality for all.
Goals:
- Promote the creation of a global community of shared values.
- Empower people who have been excluded from full participation and promote genuine democracy in the United States.
- Promote peaceful conflict resolution and the elimination of the root causes of conflict.
CarEth Foundation seeks an open and cooperative working relationship with its grantees to further our shared mission and goals. Just as we encourage activists to work together to support and complement each other, we also network and cooperate among funders to strengthen effective and broad-based peace and justice grantmaking.
Grants appear to be mainly in the regions of $12,000 to $15,000
