Deadline: Ongoing
The Third Wave Fund’s new Mobilize Power Fund is accepting proposals to support urgent organizing, activism, and mobilization led by young women of color, queer, and transgender youth around the country who lead movements for justice and take on this country’s most challenging issues.
The fund was set up to support grassroots groups who are often the first to respond to issues of state-violence, reproductive oppression, and attacks on women of color, queer, and trans communities–and the last to receive foundation funding. It provides flexible and responsive funding that supports youth leaders as they respond to immediate threats and opportunities.
