Marguerite Casey Foundation to grant $130M in 2025
The Marguerite Casey Foundation has committed $130 million in grants for 2025, significantly increasing its annual donations. The Seattle-based foundation aims to support nonprofits impacted by policy changes, particularly federal funding cuts and efforts to limit the independence of civil society organizations. According to Carmen Rojas, president and CEO of the foundation, the funding will help fill gaps in information and organizing efforts. The foundation’s donations will support both existing and new grantees, with a particular focus on journalism organizations, according to an Associated Press report.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we exist to illuminate tribal government for everyone who cares about transparency in Native issues. Our work bridges the gap left by tribal-controlled media and non-Native, extractive journalism, providing the insights necessary for truly informed decision-making and a better quality of life. Because the consequences of restricted press freedom affect our communities every day, our trauma-informed reporting is rooted in a deep, firsthand expertise.
