Driving powerful wins

The infrastructure Mosaic’s funding helped put into place is strengthening alliances, driving policy wins, shifting narratives, and reinforcing the power of collective action. Over the last five years our funding has:

Built capacity for significant national and state policy wins

In 2022, Mosaic funded the Rural People’s Platform and Firelands Workers Building Community Power/Trabajadores Construyendo Poder de la Comunidad to develop narrative leadership around climate jobs in rural parts of Washington State. Their work helped deliver a stunning defeat in 2024 of a ballot measure that would have rolled back Washington’s ambitious 2021 climate law. Firelands is now anchoring a new rural narrative hub to coordinate and co-resource rural narrative efforts across seven states.

Engaged new constituencies with environmental issues, including nurses, veterans, and faith leaders

Unlocked climate and resilience funding in under-represented, high potential regions

Movement Mobilization Hubs funded by Mosaic in 2024 to support uptake of federal climate funding facilitated at least $73M in successful federal funding applications and continue to be powerful organizing hubs in their regions. In 2025, they pivoted their approaches to ensure groups have information, resources, know-how, and collective muscle to weather attacks, build a strong base of support for climate and environmental action, and re-orient toward state and local funding and policy opportunities.

Built relationships of trust between environmental justice groups and large NGOs

Catalyzed new policy and data tools helping shift state and local agendas
