Director’s Discretionary Grants

PRIMARILY FOR GROUPS WHO ARE NOT CURRENT GRANTEE PARTNERS

The Memorial Fund provides grants up to $10,000, but typically of $5,000 or less, to support special community projects that are aligned with our mission. Projects likely to receive strong consideration include:

  • Projects supporting equity in education 
  • Projects inspiring an end to racism and poverty
  • Events created by and for communities of color

Groups are eligible for funding once every twelve months.
