President's Message
We are creating a new pathway for connection with racial justice-focused organizations that have not previously had access to the Dodge Foundation through our first-ever “Open Call.” We have been working and building towards this moment for years because we believe that this process is critical to achieving a just and equitable New Jersey.
President's Message
In January of this year, the Dodge Foundation announced our new program priorities centered on racial justice, which is the focus of our grantmaking now and into the future. Today, we are pleased to announce our first grants of 2023, which are our first grants under our new program priorities, to organizations across New Jersey.
President's Message
In 2016, the Dodge Foundation began its equity journey in earnest, culminating in a strategic plan centered on a vision for an equitable New Jersey. Building on the lessons learned over the past few years, we are entering into 2023 with a strengthened commitment and launching new program priorities centered on racial justice, which is the focus of the Dodge Foundation going forward.
President's Message
Over the past few years, the Dodge Foundation has been an organization in transformation. We are an organization aspiring to become an antiracist institution. We are an organization working to increasingly center racial equity and justice in all aspects of our work. We are an organization that is listening and learning. What we’ve learned so far will guide us in our work to come.
President's Message
In our most recent round of funding, the Dodge Foundation made more than $5 million in grants which served to acknowledge long-standing partners and collaborators, support new partners who are driving racial equity and justice, and respond to the real-time issues and crises facing people across the State of New Jersey. These grants represent our purposeful efforts to support and recognize the impact of years-long partners and institutions, while also strengthening and growing our support to new organizations focused and aligned to our new strategic direction of building a just and equitable New Jersey.

President's Message
The past two years have taught us that repairing unjust systems will require well-resourced backing from all of us. Coalition building that mobilizes the power of many toward sustained action has never been more important. That is why I am pleased to announce a set of Crisis Response Grants and Mission Investments that, together, advance those interrelated goals.
President's Message
Dodge Foundation set a course five years ago to create a more equitable New Jersey. We are now applying our learning and experience to transform our grantmaking, partnerships, internal operations, and how we deploy our resources.
