The Gulf Coast Fund has created a special Emergency Response Fund for the BP Oil Drilling Disaster, and we are distributing grants on a bi-weekly basis. Special priority is given to organizations engaged in community-led responses focused on: building community capacity; independent monitoring and documentation; providing impacted communities with access to key information and decision-makers; and organizing and advocacy for communities most impacted by the disaster.
REQUEST AMOUNTS & RESTRICTIONS: Up to $7,000 per organization. Small
requests also accepted. Recipients must be 501(c)3 or 501(c)4 nonprofit organizations
in good standing. NEXT DEADLINE: June 15, 2010
