Collective Future Fund

We are a philanthropic intermediary fund that brings together social justice movements, survivors, and donors to heal, resource, and mobilize toward a collective future free from violence. CFF’s grantmaking resources organizations that are led by and center survivors of violence, particularly Black, Indigenous, and women of color, queer and trans people of color, folks with disabilities, and im/migrants, who are cultivating community, building impactful movements, and sustaining transformational work to end gendered, sexualized, and racialized violence. Together, we envision a world of collective safety, healing, and liberation. CFF launched in early 2020 as a philanthropic response to the powerful groundswell of the #metoo and Black Lives Matter movements. Since our launch as a pooled fund, CFF has been shaped by and responsive to the trends of escalating violence and rising authoritarianism both in the United States and globally. The founding donors viewed CFF as an opportunity to go beyond a focus on individual bad actors, and instead to draw the connections across interpersonal, workplace, and state violence. Our grantmaking prioritizes survivor-centered organizing, transnational solidarity, healing and power-building. We resource organizations that are advancing practices, narrative strategies, laws, policies, and networks to transform conditions that lead to gendered, sexualized, and racialized violence. Since 2020, CFF has moved $27 million to more than 100 survivor-led organizations on the front lines of anti-violence movements.
