Joseph Rowntree was always very clear on one thing: for your efforts to have any lasting benefit, you must tackle the roots of a problem.
If you only treat the “superficial manifestations” of poverty, or social injustice, or political inequality, then you will ease the symptoms for a time, but make no lasting difference. At JRCT, we want to engage in philanthropy which changes the existing power imbalances in society to effect real change.
We place ourselves deliberately at the cutting edge of difficult and contentious issues. We believe in creating a dialogue across difference and we want to support change towards a better world.
