Since our founding in 1981, Crossroads Fund has served as an anchor organization for movement building by pooling resources and moving money to support underfunded and necessary organizing for racial, social, and economic justice in Chicago. Since day one, we have been committed to using a community grantmaking model to fund organizing that is led by directly impacted people, employs bold strategies, and campaigns that get to the root cause of injustice.”Our Movements are Interconnected, Intersectional.”credit: SoapBox Productions and OrganizingWe’re excited to share that, in fiscal year 2019, Crossroads Fund granted over $800,000 to 101 powerful grassroots organizations. Your support made this possible! By pooling resources from nearly 1,000 donors, Crossroads Fund was able to make these grants and support Chicago’s most innovative and visionary organizing and activism.At Crossroads Fund, we believe that we all deserve vibrant and healthy communities. Our grantees are mobilizing Chicagoans to build strong, intersectional movements, coalitions, and campaigns that are challenging the entrenched powers that perpetuate injustice. We make grants to those fighting for justice today because they are creating the victories we will celebrate tomorrow.Thank you for all that you do to build movements and seed change in Chicago.
