Mission

Ploughshares Fund enables the smartest people with the best ideas for building a safer, more peaceful world to implement their ideas and achieve results. A public grantmaking foundation, Ploughshares Fund funds initiatives aimed at preventing the spread and use of nuclear weapons and promoting regional stability, in the pursuit of a safe, secure and nuclear weapon-free world. Since 1982, we have made grants totaling over $50 million to become the largest grantmaking foundation in the U.S. focusing exclusively on peace and security issues.
