Deadline: 08-Apr-24
The Freedom Fund is invite applications for Survivor Leadership Fund to uplift and support survivor-led organisations, working to tackle modern slavery, by providing unrestricted grants.
Organisations can use their grant however they think best to build their capacity and improve their impact. An unrestricted grant from the Survivor Leadership Fund is one step towards shifting the power back to those most impacted – in order for them to make a real difference in the fight against modern slavery.
This is a new and exciting way to get funding directly to survivor-led organisations – and then trust them to decide how best to use it. They will not require organisations to set outcomes or objectives before receiving the grant, or to submit a formal report. All they ask is that after six months, each organisation lets them know where the funding went and how it supported their mission.
Funding Information
- Each grant will be up to $20,000. The grant is meant to support the organisation as a whole and can be used wherever the organisation has decided it needs funding. This can be operations, programs, office payments, technology purchases, etc.
Who can apply?
- In this round of grants, survivor-led organisations located in Bolivia, Brazil and Colombia are welcome to apply.
- Organisations that have one or more people in a leadership position who have lived experience of exploitation are eligible to apply. Leadership positions can include directors, deputy directors, senior management and heads of department.
