The mission of the Thomas H. & Mary Williams Shoemaker Fund is to renew and strengthen the Religious Society of Friends by supporting Quaker organizations and meetings through funding.
The Shoemaker Fund Grant focuses on innovative projects that vitalize monthly meetings within the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) and can be potentially replicated in other meetings. The grant aims to support nonprofit organizations aligned with this strategic goal. Grants awarded range widely in amount and may be distributed over one to three years.
