Funding

We are pioneering a new kind of think tank, generating big ideas and bold solutions for a new America. Focusing our work on five issue areas—Education & Work, Democratic Futures, Global Security, Technology & Democracy, and Thriving Families—we envision an America that represents and serves the public, where institutions work for all Americans, where workers, families, and communities can thrive, and where people are secure from existential threats.

Our partners and donors represent philanthropic individuals and foundations, institutional and government partners, and private-sector leaders who are committed to our mission and seek to advance our vision of a new America.

New America is guided by principles of full transparency, independence, and accessibility in all its activities and partnerships. New America does not engage in research or educational activities directed or influenced in any way by financial supporters. Read our full Gift Guidelines.
