The Fund will provide small one-time grants to timely efforts as they emerge on a local, regional, and national level. In 2009 the Fund is particularly interested in two key areas: Making Racial Equity an Economic Priority and Building Communities Free of State Violence. Approximately $300,000 will be awarded, with grants ranging from $5,000 to $25,000. The remaining application deadlines for 2009 are June 5, August 28, and December 4.
