Our Mission
The Foundation supports and encourages compassion, tolerance and justice for all people, creatures and the environment. The foundation primarily funds small grassroots IRC Section 501(c) nonprofit organizations that strive to create and preserve beauty in the world, inspire peace, diversity, education and that serve those in need. We welcome funding proposals from grassroots, nonprofit organizations with entrepreneurial spirit. We seek to partner with nonprofits that make a difference with small budgets. And big visions.

Red Empress is a member of the Association of Small Foundations.

Celebrating Ten Years of Igniting Change
Since its inception in 2001, the Red Empress Foundation has invested in social entrepreneurial nonprofit organizations. Though varied in focus, our grantees share a commitment to making the world a better place. We applaud our past and current nonprofit partners for the work they do and the steps they have taken to promote social change during the past ten years. We are honored to have supported their journey.
