Whether the health of our environment, the guarantee of reproductive rights, or our interdependent relationship with the natural world, the Jacob and Terese Hershey Foundation supports those working boldly toward a healthy, harmonious world for people and nature.

Are you a small group with a time-sensitive need?

The Jacob and Terese Hershey Foundation is pleased to announce the continuation of the Latitude Fund, a grantmaking program launched last year to provide quick-turnaround grants to grassroots groups working on environmental issues and reproductive justice in Texas to enhance capacity, functioning and impact. The inspiration for the Latitude Fund came from our grantee partners, who shared that real-time funding for internal needs can be a game-changer for community-based groups.
