Breast Cancer Action

The generous support of the Cowles Charitable Trust has been vital to Breast Cancer Action. CCT’s steadfast support helps ensure our work is always free from real or perceived conflict of interest associated with industry funding, so we can always put patient interests first.

Karuna Jaggar, Executive Director


Women's Studio Workshop

Women’s Studio Workshop is a long-time grantee of the Cowles Charitable Trust. CCT provides exactly the kind of support nonprofits really need because they trust that you know what's best for your organization. During a time when funding is closely tied to impact investing, data, and metrics, it is particularly difficult for non-social service not-for-profits to compete for support. CCT understands that successful programming is often tied to experiences that transform lives in ways that cannot be measured. We are grateful for the wisdom and generosity of this foundation and look forward to years of partnership ahead.

Universal Shiva Fellowship

The Cowles Charitable Trust has made it possible to prepare and publish ancient philosophical texts that otherwise would be lost to the world. These philosophical understandings have been shown to have important links to modern thought. We greatly appreciate all of their support.
