The Golden Globe Foundation continues
a long history of entertainment-related grantmaking.

The Golden Globe Foundation was formed in 2023, following the sale of the Golden Globe Awards show to Eldridge Globes, LLC, to perpetuate the philanthropic mission of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. The proceeds of that sale and existing resources of the organization allow the Foundation to continue its grantmaking.
