Prospective applicants should submit an Initial Funding Concept through the foundation’s online Fluxx portal and frame requests around the foundation’s two program areas (LGBTQ social justice or great apes/gibbons conservation). Applications should emphasize alignment with movement- or community-led strategies, request sizes consistent with recent awards (many grants in the $50K–$250K range but larger grants are possible), and use program officer contacts for questions rather than cold speculative asks.
