The Disability & Philanthropy Forum is a philanthropic network created in response to calls to action by the disability community to address gaps in disability representation and funding. Fiscally sponsored by the Proteus Fund, the Forum has evolved to fill a void in the philanthropic sector. We mobilize philanthropy to dismantle ableism by increasing funding for disability inclusion, rights, and justice, amplifying the leadership of disabled people in the philanthropic sector, and educating philanthropic organizations on building a culture of inclusion.  

The Disability & Philanthropy Forum fulfills its mission by utilizing programmatic strategies of Learning, Philanthropic Advocacy, and sustaining vital Peer Networks. With the Forum’s support, philanthropic leaders and staff are beginning to incorporate disability inclusion into their operations and grantmaking and are transforming philanthropy through their collective commitment.
