This program provides two-year general operating grants to organizations in the Philadelphia area who are working towards gender justice through advocacy, policy, or community organizing. Organizations funded through this program may provide direct services, but the purpose of GJF’s support is to enable them to do systems-level work that creates long-term change for women and TGNC individuals beyond the program’s reach. Grants are made once per year in the Fall. Grants are typically $11,000 per year for two years. Potential applicants are welcome to discuss their eligibility for this program by contacting GJF via email.
