Our Plan to Move $100M By 2025
The way to freedom for all people is to follow – and fund – those who know the way. That’s why we’re working to move $100M to grassroots organizing led by women of color and transgender and gender non-conforming people of color.
Groundswell provides an essential irrigation system for social justice movements – a channel into which individual donors and foundations can pour resources to reach vital work at the grassroots. See who designed and who has endorsed Groundswell’s new Blueprints.
