THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: COVID-19, Disadvantaged/Underserved Communities, Human Services
Deadline: Ongoing
“If you are looking for Rapid Response Funding in response to the COVID-19 outbreak, please visit the De Colores Rapid Response Fund page on our website. It is designed to make funds available for quick, short-term delivery to hot spots of opportunity for organizing in marginalized urban and rural communities.
Criteria for grants from the fund include:
- Organizing in U.S. grassroots communities, with a focus on communities of color, poor and working class;
- Opportunities for strategic intervention (i.e. Ferguson and Baltimore moments);
- Opportunities to impact new and strategic shifts (i.e. Occupy); and
- Opportunities to amplify the effects of in-the-moment issues (i.e. Hurricane Maria or #MeToo). The event or situation you are responding to was unanticipated and requires urgent action that is well thought out with clear goals and desired outcomes.”
Funder: Peace Development Fund – De Colores Rapid Response Fund
Eligibility: “Applications are accepted from coalitions, organizations and non-501(c)(3) groups, but not to fund individual efforts.”
Amount: $500 – $1,000
