Summary
A funding opportunity is available to support nonprofit organizations and individual creative leaders across the United States who are advancing community voice, equity, storytelling, and social impact. This opportunity prioritizes applicants rooted in communities that have historically been excluded from traditional funding pipelines, particularly those working to elevate lived experience, cultural expression, and civic participation. Eligible applicants include tax-exempt nonprofit organizations as well as individual artists, cultural workers, movement leaders, and community organizers committed to uplifting narratives and strengthening leadership within underrepresented groups. For-profit businesses are generally not eligible for this funding.
Grant amounts typically range from approximately $5,000 to $50,000, depending on the initiative’s scale, proposed impact, and alignment with the program’s mission. Funds may be used for program development, artistic or media production, narrative strategy work, community engagement efforts, leadership development, research and planning, or capacity-building activities. Support may also extend to multi-year awards or cohort-based programs designed to foster collaboration and shared learning among creative leaders and civic partners.
This opportunity seeks initiatives that shift perspectives, build empathy, and foster belonging, recognizing that storytelling, art, cultural work, and community leadership play a meaningful role in social change. Projects that uplift local voices, build bridges among diverse communities, and offer new models of civic engagement are encouraged. Applicants are expected to clearly articulate their goals, intended outcomes, audience, and vision for longer-term impact. A demonstrated commitment to community accountability, cultural authenticity, and ethical representation is an important component of successful applications.
By offering financial support and, in many cases, access to a national network of peers and collaborators, this opportunity aims to cultivate creative leaders and organizations who are shaping fairer, more compassionate communities. Through this funding, applicants have the ability to grow innovative ideas, support meaningful cultural expression, and elevate voices capable of influencing dialogue, policy, and public imagination across the country.
