The MacArthur Foundation boldly invests in creative solutions to urgent challenges, sparking hope for our future.
We work on a few big bets that strive toward transformative change in areas of profound concern, including the existential threats of climate change, the challenges of criminal justice reform, revitalizing local news in the U.S., and corruption in Nigeria.
In addition, we maintain enduring commitments in our hometown Chicago, where we invest in people, places, and partnerships to build a more inclusive Chicago and in journalism and media, where we invest in more just and inclusive news and narratives.
We also make awards to extraordinarily creative individuals through the MacArthur Fellows program and for solutions to critical problems of our time through 100&Change.

Returning to Fundamental Truths, Building an Inclusive Future
“We
continue to reaffirm our values and our mission and to seek new ways to
advance the work of our grantees, investees, and partners.”
2025 President's Essay › 
We are asking fundamental questions about what kind of a country, what
kind of a world, we want to live in. Long-held freedoms—the freedom to
give, the freedom to invest, the freedom to speak—are in question,
writes MacArthur President John Palfrey.
“It is a moment in time when we must stand firm and steadfast in
support of fundamental truths and commitments. For MacArthur, that means
that we continue to reaffirm our values and our mission and to seek new
ways to advance the work of our grantees, investees, and partners,”
Palfrey said.
