WHAT WE DO

CLF is not just another nonprofit

We believe intersectional grantmaking allows us to redefine what is possible in philanthropy.

Intersectionality is the idea that when it comes to thinking about how inequalities persist, categories like gender, race, and class are best understood as overlapping rather than isolated.

Our climate resilience and climate justice grants are simultaneously addressing access to health, education, preparedness and more.

Climate Resilience  

Our Climate Resilience Initiative (CRI) is focused on investing philanthropic dollars into emergency preparedness and climate adaptation in the areas of health, shelter and communications across the Caribbean.

Climate Justice

Our climate justice grants provide funds to organizations in the U.S. and Caribbean focused on reimagining and implementing short and long-term solutions for climate impacts. These organizations integrate cultural considerations into decision-making, and work to advance environmental and racial justice causes.

Legacy Projects

Supporting projects in our Founder’s home country of Barbados remains a key priority for us. CLF actively supports several climate resilience projects at health clinics and schools, in addition to a scholarship program for students graduating from secondary school. In 2012, we started our very first project - supporting the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Barbados - and our work with them continues to this day.
