Tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets in righteous anger at the murder of #GeorgeFloyd and the legacy of racism and police brutality in this country. People are putting their bodies on the line to demand real change. We’ve already seen activists being harassed, threatened, arrested, beaten, and attacked because of their role in organizing efforts. We stand in solidarity with activists working to disrupt police violence and calling for justice for Black people in this country.

We offer grants to support kids whose parents are targeted for their activism, and to young people who are themselves targeted. Our mission is to help offer some emotional and/or educational support to these young people. We will be keeping an eye out, and we appreciate any help any members of our community can offer in letting folks know we are here.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us at granting@rfc.org or look here to find more info about our grants.
