Supporting the Fourth Estate.

The Rogovy Foundation places great value on the Fourth Estate and supports journalism’s essential role in a functioning democracy. We seek projects and nonprofit organizations with strong investigative potential and substantial impact.

Our objective is to strengthen public knowledge and transparency, by encouraging exposure of serious crimes, corruption, and conflicts of interest.

Supporting investigative journalism.

We are particularly interested in providing funding for documentary films that combine rigorous investigative journalism with compelling storytelling. These projects should illuminate critical issues through narrative-driven investigative reporting.

This fund offers individual grants ranging from $1,000 to $50,000, with total annual disbursements of up to $200,000.

A complete list of The Rogovy Foundation Focus Grants can be found here.
