My organization works on achieving LGBT rights through political advocacy. Can we apply?
The Arcus Foundation does not make any grants for direct or indirect legislative lobbying activities or political campaigns. However, nonprofit tax-exempt organizations can engage in public education and advocacy, and Arcus will support these types of efforts as long as the project aligns with our grant making priorities. Activities we will consider funding include public education and media campaigns about policy issues, mobilization of grassroots constituencies on policy issues, community-based organizing, legal advocacy, and the education of legislators and other public officials on policy issues.
