The Golden Globe Foundation is a non-profit successor organization to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and is responsible for administering philanthropic activities and grants connected with the Golden Globe Awards. The awards themselves are now owned and operated by Dick Clark Productions following the dissolution of the HFPA on June 12, 2023.[2][1]

The foundation is located in West Hollywood, California, and is led by 9 board members and 3 members of staff.[3] As of 2024, the foundation has 65 members.[4]

In January 2024, the foundation announced $5 million in grants to 96 organizations catering to underserved communities, universities, and colleges as well as for film restoration projects and to assist journalists around the world.[5] The grants were awarded across several categories. These included professional mentorship and training programs, promoting cultural exchange through film, special projects such as local arts and social services, and also mentoring programs.[6]
