Impact Fund Grants Support Immigrants, Foster Youth, Student Protesters, and People with Disabilities
As we are confronted by fresh assaults on the fundamental rights and wellbeing of people in this country and internationally, we are incredibly grateful for the inspiration our community and grantees provide us through their grit and determination. During the Impact Fund’s fall grantmaking cycle, we awarded a total of $120,000 to support impact litigation in five important cases across the country.
Impact Fund Fall Grants of $150K Support Impact Litigation for Communities Seeking Justice
As many in our community anticipate the challenges of the months and years ahead, we are grateful that we have impact litigation as a tool to push back against injustice and seek accountability for harmful practices. Our newest grantees are doing amazing work on behalf of incarcerated people, immigrant detainees, agricultural workers, rural communities, and people of color. In our fall grantmaking cycle, we granted $150,000 to support seven impact lawsuits challenging injustice across the country. We are excited to share their inspiring stories.
