New Pluralists

We are investing together in a culture of respect and belonging for all.

New Pluralists is a funder collaborative investing in a growing ecosystem of people, organizations, and ideas working to bring pluralism to life in communities across the U.S.

America is at a crossroads

The promise of pluralism is embedded in our founding ideals of liberty, equality, and justice. But powerful forces are working to divide us and pit us against each other.

The good news is that Americans want another way forward together. There are people in communities and organizations across the country showing us how to put pluralism into practice. We invest in their courage, ingenuity, and leadership.

Understand the opportunity

Pluralism is standing up for the inherent dignity of every person

Pluralism is essential for the health of our communities and our society—but it doesn’t happen on its own. We all have to believe it, want it, and build it—today.

The Guiding Principles of Pluralism

Pluralism is a promise and a practice. It is a choice we make about who we want to become—as communities, leaders, and society. It guides us to live peacefully and work productively together in the politically vibrant, multiracial, and multifaith democracy we are.

Explore the Guiding Principles of Pluralism

Since 2021, New Pluralists has been discovering what pluralism is, why it matters so much, and how to advance it.

We have funded research, experimentation, and collaboration among national and grassroots actors.

That’s because there is no singular pluralistic intervention that will fix America.

Instead, pluralism flourishes when its practices match the needs of communities.
