Carnegie Corporation of New York
We're a grantmaking foundation working to reduce political polarization through philanthropic support for education, democracy, and peace. Est. 1911.
Andrew Carnegie is famous, not for his wealth, but for what he did with it. He believed that wealth should be used to “do real and permanent good in this world.” On this #GivingTuesday, learn more about how Carnegie laid the foundation for modern philanthropy. His conviction that wealth must serve the community may be his greatest gift.
📽️ Narrated by Brian Cox (@coxusa).
📖 Special thanks to #AndrewCarnegie biographer David Nasaw.

There’s more to know about civic opportunity — starting with where opportunities exist.
People are hungry for ways to get involved, says Hahrie Han, inaugural director of @snfagora at Johns Hopkins University, and yet they don’t know where to go. Han and her team have developed MapAgora, which visualizes the availability, composition, and equity of civic opportunities across U.S. counties.
The map is helping to identify those places where people can develop the participatory muscles that make democracy possible and to direct investments in the communities that need them most.
Visit the link in our bio to explore the map.

When it comes to civic education, "educators are democracy’s gardeners, but philanthropy prepares the soil, nourishing the networks, infrastructure, and imagination that allow civic renewal to grow."
In the @chronicleofphilanthropy, @icivicsinc CEO, Louise Dube, and Carnegie's Ambika Kapur and Geri Mannion share insights on what has worked in Illinois and four ways philanthropy can repair civic education.

In her role as CEO of the @bulletinoftheatomicscientists, a Carnegie grantee, Alexandra Bell manages the Doomsday Clock, an annual chronicle of existential risk. Created in 1947 to monitor the long-term danger of nuclear weapons after World War II, the clock was originally set at seven minutes to midnight — midnight representing catastrophe. In the intervening years, the clock has been set back eight times and forward 19 times.
The farthest from midnight was 17 minutes in 1991, with the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War.
The nearest is 2026: 85 seconds to midnight.
Bell, who sits on the Bulletin’s science and security board that sets the clock, has often heard the feedback: “‘Oh, come on, be serious. Wasn’t it worse during the Cuban Missile Crisis?’”
In October 1962, the Cuban Missile Crisis marked the height of the Cold War, the closest the United States and Soviet Union came to full-scale nuclear conflict. It opened a period of treaty negotiations, ultimately leading to, for instance, the 1970 Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), designed to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and ultimately eliminate nuclear arsenals.
As the 11th NPT Review Conference at the United Nations concludes this week, New York Times contributor Siobhan Roberts highlights why the Non-Proliferation Treaty remains a bedrock for nuclear security — one that Bell says “the world absolutely cannot afford to lose.”

Congratulations to our President, Dame Louise Richardson, on being named to the 2026 #TIME100Philanthropy list!
When @dwaynebetts was incarcerated at 16, he spent time in solitary confinement. Books were scarce.
The men in cells around him devised a workaround: they tore bedsheets into ropes, sending volumes through the air in pillowcases between buildings roughly 40 feet apart. “A-yo, send me a book,” Betts recalls calling out — the first thing he asked for since being locked up.
Betts was released in 2005, and today he is a poet and lawyer, but his experience in solitary, and the books that reached him there, have stayed with him.
What began with one man, packing hundreds of books into boxes and driving to the post office has since grown into a national nonprofit.
Freedom Reads installs curated collections directly inside prison housing units — the cellblocks where people live and spend most of their time. The goal, according to Betts, is to remind them “that they are not forgotten, and that they deserve the beauty, solace, and possibility that comes with a Freedom Library.”
Today, there are 600-plus Freedom Libraries installed across 14 states and 60 prisons, and with a new $1 million Carnegie grant, Freedom Reads will reach as many as 4,000 additional readers through the creation of 40 Carnegie Freedom Libraries.

Announcing the 2026 class of Andrew #CarnegieFellows!
Twenty-four scholars, selected from a record 381 nominations, will each receive a $200,000 fellowship to pursue research into one of the country’s most urgent issues: political polarization.
The winning projects examine the historical and religious roots of American divisions, how digital communities shape the political identities of young men, and potential institutional reforms in campaign finance, the federal courts, and education, among other areas of research.
Since 2024, Carnegie has committed up to $18 million and provided grants to 78 fellows to build a rigorous body of scholarship focused on how and why American society has become so divided and what can be done to strengthen the forces of cohesion in the United States.

Did you know Andrew Carnegie’s formal schooling ended at age 12? After immigrating with his family from Scotland to Allegheny, Pennsylvania, he worked as a bobbin boy in a textile mill.
When a retired businessman later opened his personal library to young factory workers, Andrew Carnegie discovered something that would change his life: books. He called them “the precious treasures of knowledge and imagination.” After making a fortune in steel, Carnegie funded the construction of more than 2,500 free public libraries worldwide — including 1,681 in communities across the United States.
As Andrew Carnegie once said, “Whatever agencies for good may rise or fall in the future, it seems certain that the free library is destined to stand and become a never-ceasing foundation of good to all the inhabitants.”
We still believe this.
