Priority will be given to BIPOC applicants and applicants running single parent households or who have caregiving responsibilities for other family members. The Finance Committee will also consider applications from people who have experienced recent financial hardship. We have established these funding priorities as one small part of the multi-layered work we have to do in our commitment to building an anti-racist and inclusive organization. We hope that these grants will play a role in supporting the accessibility of our programming.
