The Social Justice Fund for Ventura County (SJFVC) is pleased to announce we are accepting applications for our 2024 Fellowship grants. Fellowship grants are awards to emerging leaders in Ventura County who have a project impacting their communities, a passion for social justice and a financial need, which, if met, can facilitate meeting the project’s goals. Grants range from $5,000 to $13,000.
The SJFVC has been active in Ventura County since 2004, but in 2020 we began a new program titled the Social Justice Fellowship Program to better focus on supporting emerging social justice leaders in our community. The purpose of the Fellowship
Program is to fund emerging leaders with social justice projects in Ventura County and to build future leaders for social justice in our community. This program is ideal for people who are interested in mobilizing their community and building connections with other emerging leaders.
The Fellowship Program is an extensive program to help grantees achieve project goals and develop leadership skills. Grantees will receive funding, training for nonprofit management, grant writing, organization development as well as other forms of leadership development. Each grantee will also have a seasoned coach who helps guide grantees with their projects.
For more information and to obtain an application, please visit our website at Grant Process – SJFVC. You can also email our Program Manager, Jonathan Macaranas, at info@socialjusticefundvc.org, if you have any questions. The Social Justice Fund is committed to helping first-time applicants, so please do not hesitate to contact us.
The deadline for applications is August 30, 2024.
We hope to hear from you soon. Do not hesitate to inform others who might be interested.
Sincerely,
| Michael Teasdale
Board Chair |
The Social Justice Fund for Ventura County funds and empowers future leaders
promoting fairness, equity, human & environmental rights in our community.
