The Cultures of Resistance Network was founded as a way of connecting like-minded citizens seeking to build a more just and peaceful world. Below is a list of organizations that we support. This list includes groups that have received grants directly from the CoR Network, as well as groups that are grantees of our sister organization, the L/G Foundation. Additionally, the list includes groups that are independently supported by CoR director iara lee outside of the auspices of the foundation.
Click on the name of a group to read a description of their work or to visit their website. To view this list of groups organized by theme and region, click here.
