Direct Financing Program

FUND

The Direct Financing Program of the Black and Indigenous Liberation Movement (BILM) aims to support the work of communities, grassroots organizations and social movements fighting for diversity, inclusion, equity, non-discrimination (including racial and others), climate justice and intersectionality.

As its name suggests, BILM's Direct Financing Program seeks to directly support, without middlemen, the work of communities, grassroots organizations and social movements.

Therefore, this Program seeks to reach actors who are on the frontline, especially in these times of political reshaping situations affecting directly the communities and their territories.
