Our Granting Programs
The Rosenberg Fund for Children provides for the educational and emotional needs of children of targeted progressive activists, and youth who are targeted activists themselves. In most instances, professionals and institutions directly receive the grants to provide services at no or reduced cost to beneficiaries.
Who Can Apply?
Applications may be submitted by parents, custodians, and guardians to benefit children (under age 18) in the United States whose parents' pursuit of progressive values has left them unable to fully provide for that child as a result of being targeted as outlined above. The young adult children (ages 18-24) of targeted activists may submit applications on their own behalf.
Applications may also be submitted by or on behalf of targeted activist youth (under age 25) whose targeting has resulted in a significant and ongoing adverse life impact.
Apply now here.
Application Deadlines:
March 21 & October 13
