The CARE Fund

The CARE Fund (Care for All with Respect and Equity)

NontraditionalParticipatory grantmaking

A philanthropic collaboration pooling resources to improve the livelihoods of paid and unpaid caregivers and the quality of care across generations. Stated targets are public investment in paid family and medical leave, early care and education, aging and disability care, and quality care jobs, which is squarely the evidence terrain of care-work research.

Eligibility
The site publishes a grantee list but not eligibility criteria or an open application process. It is a funder collaborative whose grants have gone to advocacy and movement organizations rather than universities, so the realistic route for a researcher is as an evaluation or evidence partner on a care-movement grantee's award. Prospective partners are directed to the fund's Join Us and contact pages.
