human rights philanthropy
For almost 30 years, Human Rights Funders Network (HRFN) has brought funders together to collaborate, strategize, and advance the field of global human rights grantmaking. Today, we are crafting an HRFN that relentlessly builds toward justice, works with love, and continues to serve as a space for funders to strategize together and with movements.
Our Vision
We envision a peaceful future where rights are protected and upheld, the planet is cared for, and all people can live and love with dignity.
Our Mission
We are a network of funders from the Global South, East, and North dedicated to resourcing human rights action around the world.
Our Values
HRFN upholds six core values that we believe are needed to advance open philanthropy.
