The Rustic Pathways Foundation is uniquely positioned to identify and develop the most pressing and necessary community projects around the world. We listen closely to the needs of our community partners and help them to implement locally driven solutions. They’re all great causes, and we understand that choosing only one to support is a tough call.

By donating to the General Project Fund, you can rest assured that your donation will go to projects with the greatest need, whether that means one that’s extremely close to reaching its fundraising goal or another that hasn’t been shown as much love as the rest! No matter where your dollars end up, you know they’ll be supporting one of the Foundation’s priorities identified for 2026.
