Incubating social action projects that bridge divides.
For over three decades, Mediators Foundation has supported and enhanced the work of America’s leading bridge-builders and civic thought leaders.
Our Mission

How You Can Help
Talent. If you are a social entrepreneur who doesn’t automatically take sides in conflict but prefers to bring all sides together, please get in touch with us and see how we might work together.
Promotion. We welcome media-savvy support from those who can highlight the amazing work of Mediators’ projects and spread the healing message that we can bridge divides.
Funding. Since big conservative and liberal funders give to “one side or the other”, we invite donors who believe in reuniting America to learn more about us and consider supporting our Foundation or specific projects.
