philanthropies

Press Forward local news grants: Seven months after launching a $500 million fund to help save local journalism, the Press Forward alliance of philanthropies is soliciting grant applications from local news outlets.

The decision also surfaces ideological divides within “save journalism” circles, where a cadre of nonprofits is positioning itself to benefit from more than $500 million that big philanthropies have committed to local news.

We Are In funneled millions from philanthropies and corporations toward the authority’s signature project, Partnership for Zero.

We Are In was the regional philanthropies’ largest foray into addressing street-level homelessness thus far.

So they founded philanthropies to give part of it away.
