The Piper Fund is our grant-making initiative designed to build and mobilize a powerful movement to address the corrosive influence of corporate and special interest political influence on our political system. The Piper Fund is launching a new communications collaborative to strengthen the strategic communications capacity of the sector and emerging broader movement through the development of shared media and messaging tools. Since 1997, the Piper Fund has partnered with individual donors and foundations to support innovative efforts to reduce corporate influence and reform the way political campaigns are funded, with grants in 2012 of more than $2.5 million.
