About

The Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) is one of the world’s leading private, international philanthropic organizations, making grants to nonprofit organizations in the areas of arts and culture, education, health and sports, and social welfare.

SNF funds organizations and projects around the world that aim to achieve broad and lasting positive impact for society. The Foundation believes in the formation of public-private partnerships, like those behind the birth of the Diplomacy Center, as a powerful means to attain these outcomes and serve the common good.

Effective diplomacy can play a vital role in ensuring conditions of stability, peace, and prosperity in society by establishing critical tools of cooperation and negotiation. SNF is proud to support the National Museum of American Diplomacy in inviting the public to learn about the art of diplomacy and in sharing the origins, development, practice, impact, and far-reaching potential of American diplomacy.
