Criteria

The Racial & Economic Justice Fund makes grants to groups that:

  • Meet all basic eligibility criteria
    • Organizations must meet all of the following basic requirements to be eligible for a grant from Bread & Roses:
      • Must be located in Philadelphia, Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, or Camden counties
      • Must be designated by the IRS as a 501(c)3 organization or have a fiscal sponsor that is designated by the IRS as a 501(c)3 organization or have documentation of a pending 501(c)3 application with the IRS
      • Must be current with all progress reports from previously awarded Bread & Roses grants
      • Must submit a complete application prior to the deadline (because of the volume of applications we receive, we cannot make exceptions)
      • Must be using community organizing to create sustainable social change
    • Bread & Roses makes grants to organizations that have a long-term vision for social justice and engage in strategies that promote sustainable social change, including:
      • A focus on community organizing and activism (not social service, self-help, or educational programs)
      • A clear understanding of the root causes of the problem or issue that they are working to resolve
      • A vision that emphasizes changing the systems that create or perpetuate the problem or issue being addressed
      • A strategy that includes building a local base for taking collective action by the community affected by the problem or issue and results in concrete outcomes at the neighborhood, city, state or national level
      • Leadership that is primarily composed of people most affected by the problem or issue that is being addressed
  • Have a long-term vision for and engage strategies that promote racial and/or economic justice
  • Are using community organizing to achieve their goals and create social change
  • Are led by people most affected by injustice, and have broad membership and leadership bases that can survive when key leaders step down
  • Understand power and can talk about how they are trying to challenge power imbalances within their organizations and in their communities as well as between community members and policy makers
  • Have a plan, including short term and long term goals that are specific and achievable and promote racial and/or economic justice through changes in policies or practices at the neighborhood, city, state, or national level
  • Are knowledgeable about other organizations working on the same issue, and are able to work collaboratively across movements, issues, and communities to amplify impact
  • Are less likely to be funded by more traditional funders, because of their commitment to challenging power and prioritizing the leadership of marginalized people; therefore, a grant from Bread & Roses would be critical to seeding or sustaining their work
  • Groups cannot receive grants from both the Racial & Economic Justice Fund and the Future Fund during the same year.
