Eligibility and Requirements

We fund bold, ambitious, and expansive gender justice movements to create meaningful change that will last beyond our lifetimes.

Our primary goal is to get resources to gender justice movements around the globe. Our movement-led approach allows for movements to determine their own needs and allocate funding accordingly through Movement Committees, a type of participatory grantmaking. As funders, our goal is to provide resources that strengthen the agency, participation, and power of movements working directly in their communities to actionably improve gender equality.

Your group should display the following criteria to qualify for a grant:

Be outside of the United States.

With some exceptions, we generally do not fund US-based organizations.

Use an intersectional feminist analysis.

Your group’s primary focus should be advancing gender justice, with this goal clearly reflected in its activities. Please note that groups whose sole purpose is to generate income or to provide charity to individuals are not eligible.

Embrace collective action.

We do not accept requests from individuals and do not fund projects proposed by or for the benefit of individuals (including scholarships).

Be governed, directed, and/or led by historically marginalized communities.

Our grantmaking centers historically marginalized communities and those most impacted by gender injustice, including cisgender and transgender women and girls; gender diverse and nonconforming people; racial, religious, and ethnic minorities; young people; sex workers; disabled people; and members of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Your group cannot be:

Government entity

Political Party or Election Campaign

International organization proposing projects with local partners

Additional Info

Groups do not need to be registered non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to qualify for funding.
