Left Tilt Fund Seeks Social Justice Applicants for the First Award Cycle of 2011

The Left Tilt Fund is seeking applicants for the organization’s first grant cycle of 2011. Historically, the fund supports organizations and artists working to address the root causes of economic, political, and social injustice through community-based organizing, education, legal advocacy, and other innovative means. The fund strives to support a diverse range of social justice organizations, including those that do not receive funds from traditional sources. In addition, the Left Lift Fund is particularly interested in economic equality, civil liberties, prisoners’ rights, labor issues, racial justice, homelessness, the environment, the arts, and international work pertaining to Palestine, the Middle East, and Latin America. During this award cycle, the fund will award grants of up to $10,000 to support general operations as well as program/project support.
