The Racial Justice Fund supports projects working for long-lasting systemic change rather than immediate relief or service delivery. To date, the fund has awarded £2 million to 13 organisations, with an average grant of just over £150,000. Applicants can typically request up to £250,000, though there is no formal maximum.

A pre-application call with the Trust for London team is highly recommended. The Fund lead is available to discuss your idea and application. While there is currently no formal deadline, it’s advised to progress your application sooner rather than later.

What’s funded:

  • Projects tackling the root causes of racial injustice and poverty, aiming for systemic change rather than service delivery
  • Activities may include campaigning, research, closing the racial wealth gap, creating Black-led co-operatives, equitable contracting, increasing access to housing and good jobs, and more
  • The focus is on economic empowerment and addressing root causes

Eligibility:

  • Organisations must have at least three trustees or directors
  • Work must be based in London or directly benefit Londoners
  • Open to charities and groups undertaking charitable activities, including CICs
  • Priority for organisations with majority leadership by Black and minoritised communities and a strong track record in racial justice or economic empowerment

Do you work in a school or know of a child that could benefit from our brilliant, proven mentoring programme? Now’s the time to get in touch with Priya, our Schools Partnerships Lead – she can talk you through the referral process and all the benefits of the programme.
