Description
The Economic Gender Justice grant from the Peggy and Jack Baskin Foundation supports organizations and programs dedicated to advancing economic equity for women and gender-expansive people, particularly those of color. The grant targets persistent barriers such as income inequality, high costs of childcare and housing, lack of paid parental leave, and insufficient access to affordable daycare. The foundation is committed to funding direct service programs that promote equitable access to education, employment, income, and stable housing, especially in the absence of legislative solutions.
