Funding Exchange
Category: General
DescriptionThe Exchange’s Emergency Fund for Seizing Strategic Opportunities supports specific social justice projects, events, or initiatives. The Fund makes grants in response to political crises or opportunities, when a small amount of money can make a difference in educating or mobilizing for social change under time-sensitive circumstances. The Fund defines “emergencies” as instances when the organization could not have foreseen the need for the activity but is compelled by the moment. The Fund does not provide grants for general support; ongoing, annual, or multi-year projects; capital campaigns; educational institutions or organizations with annual budgets over $500,000; financial crises or shortfalls in projected funding; and individuals. The Fund will also not support anticipated annual events or activities; international emergencies in which the work does not directly address U.S. policy or its impact; and relief efforts or direct services. An online application was taken down in early 2008. Follow the directions on the Web site in order to apply. The maximum amount awarded is $5,000.
