The New-Land Foundation, Inc. seeks to support organizations and institutions with a focus in the following areas:

Protection of Public Lands, Waters, and Wildlife of the American West

Roughly 70 percent of the Foundation’s funding supports this cause. The Foundation generally funds smaller environmental organizations working to protect rivers, wildlands, and wildlife in the Rocky Mountain states from Idaho and Montana south to New Mexico, the Colorado Plateau, and Alaska. Because of limited financial resources, we generally do not fund projects in California, Oregon, or Washington. Groups funded by the foundation use education, research, policy analysis, advocacy, and litigation in defense of rivers, wildlands, and wildlife.

Peace and Arms Control

We fund groups working for international peace and security and nuclear disarmament. Our focus is to reduce the threat of nuclear weapons proliferation, to bring greater transparency to the operation and safety of the national weapons laboratories, and to help develop a more stabilizing national security doctrine.

Reproductive Rights

We are interested in programs that address the many problems caused by global population growth, including its impact on the environment. We fund groups advocating for reproductive rights, access to reproductive healthcare, and family planning programs that demonstrate a high potential to reduce birth rates in nations with fast growing populations.

Civic Rights and Justice

The Foundation is interested in supporting precedent-setting litigation or other efforts to defend civil rights and liberties, including first amendment rights and reproductive choices.
