Grant Opportunities

Our mission is to champion efforts to prioritize community goals that challenge racial inequities and advance excellent, student-centered public education for all New England youth. We are not reviewing unsolicited proposals. Our grantmaking and staff time are focused on partnerships that we proactively develop alongside organizations in our core grantmaking strategy. We do encourage you to subscribe to our email list so you may be notified when we do have open funding opportunities and take time to learn more about our current funding opportunities below.

Supporting organizations and communities with one-time event support that closely align with our mission, vision, and values is an essential part of our strategy.  Over the last several years, the number of sponsorship requests the Foundation received has increased exponentially, requiring us to assess, clarify, and tighten our criteria, eligibility, and selection process.  Please carefully review the Criteria and Eligibility sections before submitting a request.

Applicants can apply for an Event Sponsorship up to $5,000.  Deadlines for applying: April 30 and August 15, 2025
