What We Do
Grantmaking
To ensure equitable outcomes for older San Franciscans, we partner with nonprofits who provide direct services and advocate for policies that drive change. Metta Fund has an invitation-only application process and makes grants in two core areas: caregiving and social connectedness.
Our Focus Areas
Flexible Funding to Build Capacity
We provide flexible funding so organizations can build their capacity to meet the needs of older adults of color.
Centering Racial Equity
We invest in community-driven strategies and focus on organizations led by and serving people of color to build thriving, multigenerational communities.
We partner with nonprofits working to improve the health and well-being of elders across San Francisco.
Building Organizational Power Framework
Improving Organizational Capacity and Older Adult Health
We approach grantmaking with a racial equity lens and believe that nonprofits that receive flexible funds – to strengthen their organizations overall – can enhance their capacity to serve older adults of color.
