Organizations Filed Purposes:
Our mission is to strengthen U.S. movements for reproductive and social justice by resourcing intersectional grassroots organizing and centering the leadership of women of color-particularly those who are Black,Indigenous,and Transgender.
Groundswell supports a stronger, more effective U.S. movement for reproductive justice by mobilizing new funding and capacity building resources to grassroots organizing and policy change efforts led to empower low income women, women of color and transgender people.
GrantmakingGroundswell Fund supports approximately 105 organizations across the United States. Our grantmaking focuses on bolstering and scaling organizations that are building a grassroots base of support for reproductive justice (RJ) policy and systems change; on organizations that are reducing poor birthing outcomes by expanding access to community-based midwifery and doula care. We acknowledge that systems change takes time. Thus, the vast majority of our grants are for general support, and we commit to funding efficient and effective organizations over many years. We award grants through three funds (below), and through our capacity building programs.
Capacity BuildingThe underlying principle of our capacity-building work is that all programs are opt-in for grant partners, and organizations will not be required to participate in these programs to receive other grant support. Interested organizations may apply to be considered for specific capacity building programs, which currently include: (a) Integrated Voter Engagement, (b) Grassroots Organizing Institute, (c) Income Diversification, and (d) Organizational Development.
Since its inception in 2003, Groundswell has moved more than $60M in grants and capacity building support to over 150 organizations across 49 states and territories, increasing the giving of dozens of national and local foundations, and helping to bring thousands of new individual donors to support intersectional organizing. Today, Groundswell is a leading funder of intersectional organizing across nearly every major social change movement. While our work has diversified, reproductive justice remains the heart and soul of our work, as we continue to support more RJ organizations than any other foundation in the country.
