Description
**Today** The Foundation seeks to maintain its longstanding commitment to being field responsive risk-takers and to partnering and collaborating with grantees, like-minded foundations, and individual donors. In 2018, the Foundation began to reflect more deeply about, and publicly define itself and its funding in terms of justice and equity. The Board and staff are engaging in learning opportunities with grantees, consultants, and fellow philanthropists. In all areas of its funding—Democracy, Climate Change, New York City Communities, and Dance—the Foundation seeks to lift up the voices of marginalized people and their allies in seeking racial, economic, environmental, and gender justice as crucial components of maintaining vibrant communities and a sustainable environment. **[Our Values](https://www.mertzgilmore.org/our-values)** Mertz Gilmore Foundation honors the legacy of our founders by remaining consistent to their values and priorities while also adapting our work to respond to present-day crises and opportunities. In all areas of its funding the Foundation supports the voices of marginalized people and their allies in seeking racial, economic, environmental, and gender justice as crucial components of maintaining vibrant communities and a sustainable environment. **[Our grantmaking](https://www.mertzgilmore.org/our-grantmaking)** The Foundation uses a variety of philanthropic strategies to strengthen civic and cultural institutions in underserved communities of New York City, address the climate crisis and build a democracy that works for all.
