Established by the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation in 2021, the Racial Justice Fund invests in organizations working to counter the harms of racial injustice and shift power toward communities that have experienced those harms. A Community Design Team from across New Hampshire sets the fund’s vision, priorities, and grantmaking decisions; the Foundation manages and supports the fund.
The fund prioritizes solidarity economy and land justice work that advances collective ownership or governance of land, labor, housing, or cultural resources. It also supports mutual aid that meets immediate needs while challenging harmful systems, and grassroots organizing that builds community power and movement infrastructure outside traditional policy and advocacy arenas.
