Our Grants

For ease of access, we have divided our grants into categories depending on the subject matter of the grant. We encourage you to review descriptions of Lodestar's grants by type here:

• Recent Grants to Build Philanthropy (philanthropy, volunteerism, public service)
• Recent Grants to Increase Philanthropic Impact (collaboration, other business practices)
• Lodestar Dispute Resolution Center

We have included and highlighted several grants that, to us, represent the essence of our mission. These grants collectively embody the qualities that motivate our grantmaking -- vision, risk, partnership, impact.
