The Foundation supports projects both domestically
and internationally (with a particular international focus in
Latin America and South Africa). Generally speaking, the Foundation's
domestic programs support policy development, advocacy, coalition
building, research, legal and other strategies likely to impact
large classes of people or shape issues important to the Foundation's
mission. In its international funding, the Foundation also supports
organizations providing direct services.
The Overbrook Foundation strives to improve the lives of people
by supporting projects that protect human and civil rights, advance
the self sufficiency and well being of individuals and their communities
and conserve the natural environment.
In pursuit of its mission, the Foundation advances programs in
the Environment and Human Rights:

working to develop better consumption and production habits
in the United States and in Latin America (currently Brazil,
Mexico and Ecuador only). In Latin America the primary objective
is to conserve the planet's dwindling biodiversity.
