Carmack Collective Exploratory Grants
These are one-time grants of $10,000 for first-time Carmack Collective grantees who are 501(c)3 organizations (or equivalent) and operate within our four thematic areas of grantmaking (Climate Justice, Movement Building, Culture Change, and Philanthropic Agitation). Carmack seeks to keep the application process as low-lift and simple as possible, organizations are encouraged to send materials they’ve already created for other funders. Applications are welcome in all languages.
