on behalf of or in opposition to any candidate for
public office or to conduct, directly or indirectly,
any voter registration drive (within the meaning of

Grants are not made for debt reduction. Funding for
conferences, publications and media is limited to
projects directly related to priorities in the Foundation's

As of January
2009, The Overbrook Foundation is no longer accepting
unsolicited requests for new project or operating
support from organizations not currently funded by
the Foundation. However, we remain committed to
our primary fields of interest and are eager to hear
news from organizations working in those areas of
human and rights and the environment presently of
priority to the Foundation.
