Seeking Upstream Solutions
A woman was walking along a river and was astonished to see many women struggling in the water. She saw some people pulling the drowning women out of the river. The woman thought for a moment, then she ran upstream to find out why the women were falling in the water in the first place — and to do something about it. ~ Source unknown
Merle Chambers Fund identifies barriers and invests in policy and systems change to create fair opportunities for people to reach their full potential, particularly those who are unfairly disadvantaged or vulnerable to life's circumstances.
LEARN ABOUT USWe are engaged funders, working closely with our grantees and other funders. Together, we take innovative approaches and informed risks that can lead to broad-reaching change.
OUR STRATEGYChambers Fund works to ensure that more people — particularly those most impacted by economic, social, and political injustice — have a better chance to reach their full potential. To that end, the Chambers Fund Board of Directors has decided to significantly increase the foundation’s investment in two of its program areas: Equity and Democracy, and Women’s Economic Security. This decision is part of a broader philanthropic endeavor fueled by a heightened commitment in these two areas by both Merle Chambers, personally, and Chambers Fund.
