Perspective Fund

WHO WE ARE

At Perspective Fund, we’re on a mission to change the narrative ecosystem around progressive issues. We fund and partner with impact-oriented mediamakers and campaigns using storytelling to transform minds and inspire action. Driven by this belief, we champion projects that not only stand on their own as first-rate pieces of media, but that equip their audiences with the knowledge, willpower, and community infrastructure to bring about a more socially and economically inclusive world. Perspective provides storytellers and journalists with the funding, tools, and strategy-driven support to tell stories about equity and justice that generate action. 

EMPLOYMENT PHILOSOPHY:

Perspective Fund believes we are strengthened by the diversity of our staff, and welcomes such diversity including race, gender identity or expression, educational attainment, disability, veteran status, and personal experience with the criminal justice system. We welcome applications from people of all cultures, backgrounds, and experiences, and we strongly encourage people of color and persons with disabilities to apply. We actively cultivate an institutional culture that reflects the values of respect, equity and inclusion that we seek through our work to amplify in the larger world.

We hire, promote and retain employees based on their professional qualifications, demonstrated abilities and work performance, as well as on the degree to which these qualities are required in the employment positions made available by the Foundation’s service needs and business requirements. All personnel decisions, including but not limited to recruitment, hiring, compensation, assignment, training, promotion, discipline and discharge, are made without discrimination based on any protected characteristic as defined by law (e.g., race, color, religion, national origin, citizenship, ancestry, age, disability, gender identity or expression, sex, sexual orientation, marital or familial status, domestic partner status, veteran or military status, genetic predisposition or carrier status, and prior criminal convictions, as well as educational attainment.)
