The Rosenberg Fund for Children provides educational and emotional support for the children of targeted, progressive activists and also makes grants to young people targeted for their own activism.

Recent grants include:

• Gender Justice Authors Face Bans (MA, Fall 2024): $3000 for sports and supplies to build a computer for two children, ages 13 and 15, whose activist parents authored a children’s book about gender-nonconforming youth that is being banned widely by right-wing politicians. The entire family has received hate mail and threats of doxxing as a result. MA. Fall 2024
• Pro-Choice Activist Jailed (FL, Fall 2024): $3000 for music and arts programs for two 18 year-olds whose mom, an OB-GYN and pro-choice activist, is serving an excessive sentence of prison time and probation for spray painting the outside of a “crisis pregnancy center” (fake abortion clinic). FL. Fall 2024
• Journalist Attacked and Jailed (OR, Fall 2024): $1500 for chess club, sports and tutoring for the 11 year-old son of an antifascist organizer and independent journalist who was physically assaulted and threatened by armed Proud Boys while covering a recruitment event. After being forced to defend herself with pepper spray, she was arrested and jailed.
