 The Wyss Foundation works with the Berger Action Fund, a 501(c)(4) social welfare organization that advances policies through advocacy, grassroots organizing, and lobbying. Berger provides support to organizations that advocate for policy solutions to some of the world’s biggest problems: the biodiversity and climate crises, income inequality, and health disparities. Learn more at bergeractionfund.org. Both organizations prohibit grant recipients from using funds to support activities connected with federal, state, or local elections.
