Through this limited-time pilot, eligible organizations will receive hands-on support to apply for up to three grant opportunities, tailored to their capacity and goals.
Rather than aiming for a fixed dollar amount, we focus on aligning with what your organization can sustain and steward well. Whether you're just getting started or expanding your impact, the pilot meets you where you are—and builds with you from there.
