The Mama Cash 202<\/span>5<\/span> Grantmaking<\/span> Window will open on 3 March 2025<\/span>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We will be open to receiving Letters of Interest from applicants who are not current grantee-partners from 3 to 31 March 2025, 11:59 pm CET<\/strong>. Please note that we are only accepting funding applications from the following regions this year: the Americas and Caribbean, Europe, Central Asia and North Asia. We will not be reviewing applications from other regions. You can apply\u00a0here<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Applicants will be informed by <\/span>30 August 2025<\/span><\/b> whether their application has been accepted by the Community Commitee (COM COM) – Mama Cash\u2019s participatory grantmaking body – to the final round of its decision-making process.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mama Cash supports ambitious self-led feminist organisations and initiatives that defend and advance the rights of women, girls and trans and intersex people. The Resilience Fund provides core, flexible, long-term support. This enables grantee-partners to strategise, plan and carry out the work they want to do, in the way that they want to do it – over the long term – so that they can grow, strengthen and sustain their feminist movements.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0
<\/span><\/p>\n

During the 2025 Resilience Fund LOI window, Mama Cash is inviting applications from self-led feminist organisations and initiatives based in the following regions: the Americas, the Caribbean, Europe, Central Asia and North Asia. Applicants for new Resilience Fund grants that are not based in the above-listed regions <\/span>will not be considered this year<\/span><\/b>. We advise groups wishing to apply for a Resilience Fund grant to closely consider the Mama Cash\u2019s <\/span>selection criteria<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Geographical restrictions<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2024, Mama Cash invited new applicants to the Resilience Fund from the other regions we work in, that is Africa, West Asia, East Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia and Oceania. This year, we are opening for applications from the regions that were closed in 2024. This is to ensure that the bulk of our funding in 2025 continues to be weighted towards our core, long term, flexible funding in regions that we were not able to fund in 2024.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mama Cash\u2019s other funds \u2013 i.e., the Solidarity Fund, Spark Fund, Revolution Fund and Radical Love Fund \u2013 will remain open for new applications from all regions, as relevant to each fund. <\/span>In addition, renewal grants for existing Resilience Fund grantee-partners are also unaffected by this year\u2019s regional restriction.<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Decision-making<\/strong><\/p>\n

Consistent with our commitment to sharing power and ceding decision-making to activists, Mama Cash remains a fully participatory grant-maker. All decisions about all our new grants are made by the communities with whom we work. Our participatory grantmaking process for the Resilience Fund is as follows:\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
