ROSA's Stand With Us Fund has been established to support the many organisations run by and for women who stand up and take action every day to address violence against women and girls (VAWG).
The Fund aims to empower and strengthen frontline Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) organisations to build safer futures for women and girls. Through this fund, one-year grants of up to £25,000 will be offered to fund organisational development work. Grants are available for the period October 2022 to September 2023.
Funding is available to organisations with an average annual income over the last 3 years of between £100,000 and £500,000.
