The Baobab Collective Fund
Created: 03/12/2024
News/Events Category: Funding and Finance
The Baobab Collective Fund is a flexible fund for individuals over the age of 18, groups, collectives, social movements, and organisations led by and for Black and Global Majority people working on racial justice.
Applications should meet all four of their principles:
- Representation: Groups and organisations have 75% or three quarters of leadership (e.g. director, founder, leader, coordinator, management, board) that identify as Black African/Caribbean and Global Majority people
- Self-led: Groups and organisations centre and encourage lived experience in their practices and take an intersectional approach to serve the communities they represent. 75% or three quarters of leadership (e.g. director, founder, leader, coordinator, management, board) have lived experience of the issues they work on
- Services: The main focus is to serve Black African/Caribbean and Global Majority communities. 75% of the people and communities accessing the services are Black African/Caribbean and/or Global Majority People of Colour
- Purpose: Your purpose and practices are intentionally challenging oppressive systems
Ideas of some of the projects they can fund include: a series of wellbeing community events; an intergenerational art collaboration; contributions to heating and lighting costs where your work takes place; salaries to think through your strategy, and so much more.
Who can apply
Individuals over the age of 18, groups, collectives, social movements and organisations led by and for Black and Global Majority people working on racial justice in any of the four UK nations.
How to apply
There are two stages of application:
- Fill out the alignment check and questions on the website.
- If you make it through round one, you will be invited for a fuller conversation.
The closing date for applications is 11.59pm on Monday 03 February 2025.
