Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations Invites Proposals for Fund for a Just Society

The Fund for a Just Society, a program of the Unitarian Universalist Association, provides grants to nonprofit organizations in the U.S. and Canada that address issues of social and economic justice. The Fund supports organizations that meet all three of the following criteria: 1) use community organizing to bring about systemic change leading to a more just society; 2) mobilize with those who have been disenfranchised and excluded from resources, power, and the right to self-determination; and 3) have an active focused campaign to create systemic change. Consideration is given to projects that are less likely to receive conventional funding because of the innovative or challenging nature of the work or the economic and social status of the constituency. The maximum grant amount is $15,000; however, most grants range between $6,000 and $8,000. Requests are reviewed two times per year; the next application deadline is September 30, 2021. Visit the Unitarian Universalist Association website to review the funding guidelines and take the online eligibility quiz.
