Wellspring Philanthropic Fund supports the realization of human rights and social and economic justice for all people. Our work is rooted in respect for the dignity and worth of every human being and is informed by the following beliefs: * Social institutions and structures should promote the full realization of human rights and human potential, and should be accountable to these ends. * The rights of all people are advanced when the rights of the most marginalized and vulnerable peoples are protected. * Social justice movements should employ means that are consistent with their ideals, and should give agency to the people whose interests they seek to advance. * As responsible stewards, we must strive to maximize the impact of our charitable investments.
