Funding for Racial Justice

CORR Action Fund

The mission of the CORR Action Fund is to invest in and assist churches, community organizations, conferences, seminaries, and ecumenical bodies that nurture programs focused on dismantling racism. The CORR Action Fund (funded by the Minority Group Self Determination Fund) addresses four priorities which actively support the Four Areas of Focus of the UMC dealing with leadership development, global health, poverty, and congregational development.

The CORR Action Fund Focus for 2010 is on Action and Advocacy. Programs receiving financial support through the CORR Action Fund will be those which provide action and advocacy efforts related to assuring the rights of racial ethnic immigrants and refugees. Those invited to apply will be nonprofit and local church/action advocacy groups. More than a quarter of a million dollars is available. The grants will range from $25,000 to $40,000.  The deadline for applying for these grants is June 30, 2010. For more information, download an application or CORR Action Fund brochure.
