New Report: Resourcing Movements for the Long Haul

Picture
In our new report, Resourcing Movements for the Long Haul: Lessons from the Grow Power Fund’s First Six Years, we document key lessons from the Grow Power Fund’s first cycle of long-term funding. 

​Available in both English and Spanish, you'll hear directly from grantees—responding to mounting attacks against their communities—on the crucial impact of multi-year funding, the necessity for low-barrier and accessible reporting processes, and the interplay between building capacity and building trust between philanthropy and grassroots movements.

Our 2022 Year in Review

Picture
Our grantees continue to lead the way towards an alternative future with actions, initiatives, and programs that are revolutionizing the ways we can all show up more intentionally for and within our communities. In 2022, Third Wave made a total of 111 grants, moving a record-breaking nearly $3 million to 97 gender justice organizations, with 99% of all funding going to BIPOC-led organizations. We encourage you to check out our 2022 Year in Review, now available! Best viewed on a desktop.
