Description
1) Objective
The CS Fund and Warsh-Mott Legacy (CSF/WML) aims to promote progressive social change and has three programmatic areas for grant-making. These are (1) rights and governance (incl. support for initiatives to improve the social, environmental, and governance aspects of international trade agreements); (2) emerging technologies (addressing the potential risks of nanotechnology, synthetic biology, genetic engineering, and related technologies); (3) food sovereignty (incl. support of grassroots activities in seed saving, soil building, protection of pollinating insects and animals, and traditional agriculture); and (4) just transitions. Grants are for activities in the USA and internationally, including for issues important in developing countries.
2) Eligibility
Applicant organisations must be classified as a 501(c)(3) by the US Internal Revenue Service. Foreign applicants should note that CSF and WML make a very limited number of direct grants abroad (i.e., without fiscal sponsorship by a US-based organization). The foundations do not provide support to individuals, endowments, or direct lobbying activities.
3) Location
Outside the United States the Foundation has no defined focus countries and provides grants for projects worldwide.
4) Budget
Most grants range from $20,000 to $150,000. Their total annual grant budget is around $3,000,000.
5) Application
Applicants may submit Letters of Inquiry (LoI) that match the interests of the Foundation throughout the year. The LoI should provide information about the applicant’s mission and organisation, planned project activities, a line-item budget, and a list of secured and pending funding for the project in question. The Foundation then invites full proposals from selected applicants.
