Overview

The World Future Fund Grant aims to create a sustainable future by addressing social and economic imbalances. It prioritizes funding organizations that promote social democracy and enhance public welfare, particularly in the USA and Europe. By fostering coalitions and supporting educational initiatives, the fund seeks to empower communities to engage with pressing societal issues. The grant encourages innovative approaches to leadership and outreach, especially among youth, to inspire positive change and tackle global challenges.

NOTE: Organizations seeking grants should send an introductory letter summarizing their project to the designated email address. If they are interested, they will contact you.
There needs to be a giant change in direction. We are interested in working with and funding groups that have a similar commitment. Our grant program is aimed at areas where other organizations may be better organized than we are, so a grant is more efficient that a WFF program.
The World Future Fund is a non-profit organization that has been set up to do research and to educate people about the need for a greater commitment to investment in the future.
Priorities
A key goal is creating a sane society here at home in America. This means creating a social democratic society with basic government services that protect the people. America is nothing short of social chamber of horrors among developed states with astronomical levels of child poverty, millions in jail and no universal health insurance.
A particular priority is the creation of a system which places labor union representatives on corporate boards.
