Welcome! Thank you for your interest in sharing information about your group with Thousand Currents.
Thousand Currents’ grantmaking approach is by invitation, which means that we do not accept unsolicited proposals for funding. By providing the information requested in this form, you will create a profile in our system. Your group’s profile will be reviewed by our Global Programs Team, and if we think your group may be a good fit for a Tactical Initiatives grant we will reach out to you via email/phone to request more information as part of our decision making process.
Please note that the call for profiles is open to groups that have not previously received a grant from Thousand Currents. Additionally, please note that due to the anticipated volume of profiles we will receive, we will not be able to respond to, or provide funding to, all groups who submit a profile or who we may pursue for further contact.
Tactical Initiatives grants support groups that are using one or more of the following tactics: strategic litigation, popular education, cultural production (including narrative change), and campaigns to strengthen climate justice, food sovereignty, and economic justice movement work. Tactical Initiatives grants range from $25,000 - $250,000 USD and are one time grants with a grant period of 1-3 years.
