Colombe Foundation for Peace Organizations

Posted by on August 25, 2006

Colombe Foundation seeks to create a peaceful world through changes in American policy. We work for the elimination of weapons of mass destruction, a shift from war and aggression to conflict prevention and conflict resolution, and a shift from wasteful military spending to investments in programs addressing poverty, environmental degradation and other root causes of violence. We believe that American citizens, working through non-governmental organizations, can bring about these changes by using the tools of our democracy.

The Foundation currently makes grants to organizations in the United States that share its mission and use these strategies:

1. Grassroots organizations working to educate the public and influence decision makers;
2. Peace advocacy organizations promoting alternative policies; and
3. Organizations initiating media coverage.
