We are excited to announce that we are accepting applications to be part of the 2024-2025 Giving Project cohort at Headwaters starting today!

If you're looking for a transformative program taking a hands-on approach to moving money to Minnesota's BIPOC movement organizations, consider applying to the Giving Project!

Since 2015, our Giving Project has trained 8 cohorts of community grantmakers, funded 97 Minnesota-based organizations, and moved nearly $1.7 million dollars to movements leading the way to collective liberation. Our cohorts are cross-class, multi-racial, and multi-generational. All are invited to apply, no previous fundraising or grantmaking experience necessary! We especially encourage BIPOC, LGBTQ, low- or no-wealth individuals, and folks over 40 to apply.

We are also excited to share that the 2024-2025 cohort will focus on a theme: gender justice! This year's program will focus on funding work that seeks to confront gender-based oppression, including patriarchy, transphobia, and homophobia, and to create a world free from misogyny.

To find out more about the Giving Project, what will look different this year, and why you should apply, check out our newest blog by one of the Giving Project's facilitators, Chris Olson!

Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis until June 16, 2024! Find out everything you need to apply on our website.
