The AJ Muste Foundation in New York City provides grants, sponsorships, and educational resources to hundreds of grassroots projects around the world. The foundation invites applications for its Social Justice Fund, through which it awards grants for grassroots activist projects in the United States, giving priority to those with small budgets and little access to more mainstream funding sources. The foundation is especially interested in funding efforts to end the violence of borders and the criminalization of immigrants; shut down CBP and ICE; abolish prisons and dismantle and redefine systems of policing and criminal justice; confront institutionalized violence against racial, ethnic, gender-based, and LGBTQ communities; put an end to economic exploitation, class stratification, and systemic poverty; and stop the war machine, end state sponsored terrorism, and expose the dangers of nuclear power.
