About the LaureL Foundation

The LaureL Foundation makes grants to nonprofit organizations, primarily in Northern California, that have demonstrated a commitment to the care and stewardship of the natural world, the empowerment of women and girls, animal welfare, K-12 education, and the delivery of social services to disadvantaged people. We specifically look for programs that (a) demonstrate a superior level of integrity and transparency, (b) offer novel and innovative approaches to complex or seemingly intractable problems, and (c) fall into more than one of our interest areas.
