Grassroots International recorded another year of solid growth in programs. While continuing to invest accumulated surplus from our 20th anniversary campaign in education and advocacy programs for resource rights, Grassroots surpassed the previous year’s best-ever mark for cash grants by almost 7%, providing $1,139,986 to partners and other organizations working for justice. Grassroots also set the stage for future growth in international programs with the opening of a new million-dollar donor-advised fund, the Sharing the Harvest Fund. This partnership will allow Grassroots to expand support for strategic grantmaking in Latin America. Grassroots continued to maintain low operating overhead, devoting more than 80% of spending to programs and education. Grassroots does not seek U.S. government funding, and remains outspoken in support of global justice. As always, your active support makes all of this possible.
