*The Rosenberg Fund for Children is a U.S.-based public foundation that provides the shelter of a supportive community for children whose parents are working for social justice, and - as a direct result - have lost their livelihood, their liberty, their physical or emotional well-being or even their lives in the course of that work.


The RFC has awarded millions of dollars to benefit hundreds of children whose parents have been targeted because of their involvement in progressive movements including the struggles to wage peace; preserve civil liberties; safeguard the environment; and organize on behalf of workers, prisoners and others whose human rights are under threat.
