National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy (NCRP)

NCRP promotes philanthropy that serves the public good, is responsive to people and communities with the least wealth and opportunity, and is held accountable to the highest standards of integrity and openness. We envision philanthropy at its best investing in people and communities with the least wealth, power, and opportunity and in the movements and nonprofit organizations that engage, serve, and represent them.

We work with foundations, nonprofits, and social justice movements to advocate for moving more and better resources to frontline organizations fighting for migrant justice, Black lives and liberation, reproductive access, gender justice, climate justice, democracy, and more. Individuals and institutions involved in grantmaking use NCRP’s resources and insight to inform their own practices and advocate and organize with other funders to change practices sector-wide. Nonprofits working for social justice, particularly NCRP member organizations, use NCRP’s work to better understand the philanthropic landscape and to feel empowered to advocate for their movements to funders individually and collectively.
