Mary's Pence Grants

Mary's Pence Grants are designed to support women’s social justice organizations in the United States and Canada. The grant focuses on funding grassroots organizations that are:

• Women-led, for the benefit of cis women, trans women, non-binary people, and their families.
• Community-centered, emerging from the community's needs and developed collaboratively by its members.
• Working to enact long-term sustainable change at the community level, including shifting public opinion on justice issues, forming cross-population alliances, changing unfair structures or policies, and building social justice skills.
• Focused on social justice actions that emphasize human dignity, the common good, economic security, dignified work, environmental care, participation, decision-making at the most local level possible (subsidiarity), and nonviolence.
