Giving Philosophy

The Trust prioritizes impact-driven projects that advance gender equality and women's rights. It values feminist approaches, creative activism, and community-led solutions. The 2026 grants round emphasizes project impact over bureaucratic requirements, supporting initiatives addressing pay equity, safety, representation, and emerging issues like AI and gender.

Wealth Source:Community-based trust established in 1985; likely sustained through donations, grants, and philanthropic contributions rather than corporate or family endowment.

Tips for Applicants

Align your project with core themes: equal pay, safety, representation, or emerging gender equality issues. Demonstrate clear impact and community benefit. The Trust favors simplified applications focusing on outcomes; check their April 2026 grants opening for updated guidelines and refined themes.
