Bread & Roses Community Fund

Community Grantmaking Committee

The Community Grantmaking Committee (CGC) is responsible for our REJ and Future Fund grantmaking. Made up of activists, organizers and donors, the CGC brings experience and knowledge of social justice movements to their decision-making process for grants. As a group, they review proposals, conduct site visits and use a consensus-based process for making decisions about which groups get grants.
