THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: COVID19, Racial Equity, Racial Justice, Community, Social Progress
Deadline: Ongoing
“COVID-19 has disproportionately impacted Black, indigenous, immigrant, Latinx and other communities of color. As we anticipate the end of the pandemic, we know that recovering and rebuilding from COVID-19 does not and should not mean returning to a pre-pandemic “normal.” Instead, we seek a “new normal” – rooted in equity, justice, and our shared humanity – that helps build a more racially just society where everyone in our region can thrive. For this reason, Meyer is exclusively focusing our core grantmaking in 2021 to support work that seeks a Just & Equitable COVID-19 Recovery. This means our work and the work we support will:
Build Power: We believe that movements transform power by elevating the voices and demands of those most impacted, nurturing healing-centered leadership, and building resiliency within community.
Change Systems: We define systems change as challenging and changing the policies, practices, priorities, and culture that created and perpetuate the inequities exposed and exacerbated during the pandemic.
Collaborate Across Constituencies and Issues: We believe that multi-racial coalitions working on multiple issues and led by those most directly impacted by injustice yields the greatest potential to advance justice.”
Funder: The Meyer Foundation
Eligibility: Nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations (or organizations fiscally sponsored by one) serving the greater Washington D.C. region.
Amount: Unspecified
