Community-Based Public Foundations: Small Beacons for Big Ideas
Published: January 2004
Community-Based Public Foundations (CBPFs) are democratic philanthropic grantmaking institutions, functioning as partnerships between donors and community activists, committed to supporting the work of community-based nonprofit organizations engaged in progressive social change organizing addressing the root causes of inequality, lack of opportunity, discrimination and political and economic powerlessness experienced by disadvantaged and disenfranchised populations in our society. This report seeks to raise the profile of CBPFs based on the results of a survey NCRP conducted in late 2002 and early 2003 of CBPFs across the nation. Of 192 CBPFs contacted nationwide, sixty-four responded to the survey for a 33 percent response rate. In-depth interviews were also conducted with eight of the CBPF correspondents.
