Grow Power Fund
Young people of color have always been at the forefront of social change. Launched in 2016, the Grow Power Fund provides up to six years of holistic support inclusive of general operating support, capacity-building resources, organizational development coaching, and annual convenings. The fund supports emerging organizations with budgets under $200,000 that demonstrate shared leadership and potential for growth, but lack access to skills development and grant funding. The Grow Power Fund prioritizes organizations focused on issues and geographic regions that have been under-resourced by philanthropy.
