What we fund:
Work with the primary objective of creating long-term change in society by addressing the causes of injustice and inequality.
We focus on groups addressing issues that face a particular community that are led by that community.
We prioritise groups that struggle to get funding elsewhere, particularly if other funders might consider them to be "too radical".
All types of non-profit organisations, including groups that are not formally registered.
