Funding Opportunity
In support of incredible leaders and entrepreneurs who have been actively keeping their communities safe for months (years) now, Omidyar Network has launched the Community Infrastructure Fund for Mutual Aid to fund the resources, tools, and people supporting systems in which communities voluntarily care for one another for their mutual benefit.
We are enduring a moment in which deep-rooted systemic crises are becoming more acute and visible than they have in decades, with widespread job loss, challenges to housing, and limited government support. For communities historically impacted by inequitable systems and failed policies, this reality is not new. As Black organizers have reminded us, “we keep each other safe.”
This experimental fund into mutual aid is our chance to learn through supporting and consulting with organizations on the frontlines. We are joined by Art in Praxis consultants Jess Solomon and Richael Faithful to steward the fund, and an inspiring Advisory Committee of community leaders who will decide where funds go.
By distributing the funding in a participatory way, we aim to mirror mutual aid values and play a small part in contributing to a mutualist future that centers community and supports the individuals leading the work.
The application will be open June 1 – July 15, 2021, and decisions will be made by August 31, 2021. The total fund is $475,000, with an anticipated grant size of $25,000-$50,000 per grant (though could be larger or smaller).
