The Pillars Fund invests in opportunities to elevate and amplify the leadership, narratives, and talents of American Muslims in civil society, the media, and public discourse. The Fund aspires to put an end to bigotry, xenophobia, and other divisive tactics that keep our nation apart.
Pillars supports nonprofit organizations throughout the United States that address the following issues:
- Rights
The focus is on social and policy change efforts that allow American Muslims to live and thrive with dignity and that protect and expand the human and civil rights of us all.
- Wellness
The focus is on the growth and nurturing of whole, healthy American Muslim communities that are equipped to serve those nearest to them and society at large.
- Understanding
The focus is on approaches to amplify American Muslim voices, create a deeper understanding of American Muslims and American society, and encourage people to learn more and take action.
While Pillars does not fund the building or maintenance of mosques, religious centers, or schools, grants may be used to support programs based in those institutions.
