Soros’ foundation commits $50 million to women and youth groups’ work on democracy
The new Open Society commitment will support nonprofits working on a wide range of issues affecting these groups, including reproductive justice, climate change, voting and gun safety.
Such support is needed, said Shawnda Chapman, director of innovative grantmaking and research for the Ms. Foundation for Women, adding that foundations looking to support social justice need to fund nonprofits in the movement as if they want them to win. The Ms. Foundation published research last week advocating for more financial support for women and gender-nonconforming people of color leading nonprofits on the frontlines of social justices issues.
