About our group
Rachel’s Network, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, is a community of women at the intersection of environment, philanthropy, and women’s leadership who exchange ideas and take action on our planet's urgent challenges. We are named in honor of Rachel Carson, who changed our understanding of the natural world with the 1962 publication of "Silent Spring."
Rachel’s Network members are activists, community leaders, foundation trustees, impact investors, and board directors. They give privately and through family, community, and institutional foundations to causes ranging from sustainable agriculture and toxics, to conservation and climate change. They share the conviction that together, they can help one another effect transformative change.
To deepen members’ understanding of the urgent environmental and philanthropic issues of the day, we offer program-rich annual gatherings, along with regional events and webinars on timely topics.
Since 2000, our network has collectively given over $3.5 million to women leaders at the frontlines of our movement and the solutions that secure a thriving planet for future generations. To join the network, visit rachelsnetwork.org/join.
