Preference is given to the development of innovative, challenging or experimental programs whose application or replication will have wide denominational impact. Challenge grants are increasingly given. The Fund for Social Responsibility makes grants to projects that increase Unitarian Universalist involvement in issues of social responsibility. Grants are made to Unitarian Universalist organizations working in support of social justice educational work, direct service projects, projects that enable Unitarian Universalists to witness about social issues, and projects organizing to change systems of oppression and injustice. Challenge grants are common.
Challenge grants are possible.
Fund for a Just Society The Fund for a Just Society makes grants to non-Unitarian Universalist organizations addressing issues of social and economic injustice. Grants are available to fund projects in either their first or second year of study and action. Grants for all of the four funds above are for one year. Second year funding is possible after submitting a final report and a new proposal. Third year funding for the same project is unusual.
