YOUR REAL ODDS

The fund aimed to make 20 grants of $25K in 2024, targeting a $2M total grant pool.

Competition is real but the fund deliberately sidesteps large established organizations, which improves odds for smaller grassroots groups. Active grantmaking cycles are not always open — check the Tides site for current availability.

WHAT IT TAKES

  1. Confirm current cycle is open by signing up for Tides news or checking the Just Health Fund page directly — 15 minutes

  2. Prepare a clear description of your community-based health equity work, emphasizing lived experience and local impact — 2–4 hours

  3. Submit through Tides Foundation's grantmaking process when a cycle opens — 1–3 hours

WORTH KNOWING

The fund explicitly states that grassroots organizations 'routinely lose out to national legacy organizations on funding' — this grant is designed to counter that, so smaller and newer organizations should not self-select out.
