Important message from the Groundswell Board:

For the first time in our existence, the board of the Groundswell Community Justice Trust Fund is taking time to do some necessary internal restructuring and regrouping to ensure ongoing sustainability. As a result, our granting cycle is paused until later in 2026. We hope to have more specific timelines for you by the end of January 2026, so please check back then!

Thank you for your understanding and patience. We know how tough it is out there with the search for funding, and we are committed to continue our work in supporting movement building and growth.

This year, we co-hosted our third public webinar with Resource Movement, featuring Elene Lam (Butterfly), Deena Ladd (Toronto Workers’ Action Centre), and Kimalee Phillip (Groundswell), who shared powerful insights on growing our movements through radical giving. You can still watch it here.

In 2023, we were so pleased to co-host an important conversation with Resource Movement’s Toronto chapter, featuring speakers Naomi Klein, Maya Menezes, and Groundswell trustee Mostafa Henaway, about the importance of growing our movements through radical philanthropy. You can watch this panel discussion here.

Please make a donation to Groundswell! Your money has the potential to fund both existing and new organizations and projects, build infrastructure for long-term organizing, and create new ways to discuss and disseminate political ideas. Let's harness our collective resources to support social change.
