Kalliopeia Foundation works to support the evolution of a world culture that honors the underlying unity at the heart of life's rich diversity. Through our grantmaking we strive to foster ways of living which pay tribute to the innate dignity and creative potential within all people.

Kalliopeia primarily makes grants to U.S. nonprofit organizations aligned with our Mission that are incorporated and serving people in the United States. We do consider international grant applications from non-governmental organizations that are submitted as part of our Oneness program, although we will be more selective with these due to relative difficulties of international grantmaking.

Kalliopeia grants generally range from $5,000 to $20,000, although they may be less or more depending on the history of our relationship with an organization or other considerations.

Kalliopeia does not support large, institutionally-funded programs, but rather programs with modest budgets that tend to be overlooked by traditional funding sources.

Because the foundation focuses on programs and populations that do not receive mainstream funding, we recognize the value of establishing longer-term relationships where appropriate.

When evaluating an organization for a grant, we value:

strength and clarity of intention
commitment
vitality
honesty, straightforward communication, comprehensive information
inspired vision with effective implementation
a strong administrative foundation

We welcome proposals from programs serving people from all faiths and all walks of life.

Please see our grant application process for further information.
