Subject: Open Meadows Foundation Offers Support for Community Programs Serving Women and Girls

The foundation offers grants of up to $2,000 to projects that are designed and implemented by women and girls; reflect the diversity of the community served by the project in both its leadership and organization; promote building community power; promote gender, racial, social, economic, and/or environmental justice; and have limited financial access or have encountered obstacles in their search for funding.

The organizational budget of an applicant organization should not exceed $150,000. Small and start-up organizations are strongly encouraged to apply. Proposals from organizations not previously funded by the foundation will be given priority.

Applicants must be 501(c)(3) organizations or have an eligible fiscal sponsor. The foundation does not fund organizations or projects in which women and girls are not the primary leaders and implementers.
