Founded in 1975 by writer and social justice activist Barbara Deming, Money for Women is the oldest ongoing feminist granting agency in the US and Canada. Grants from the foundation give monetary support and encouragement to feminist writers and visual artists who identify as women, cis-women, trans-women, and/or nonbinary. The Fund relies on a volunteer Board of Directors and carefully chosen judges who collaborate in making awards. While other grant sources have come and gone, Money for Women is now in its sixth decade – still feminist and still willing to take risks. NOTE: This year, the submissions portal will close after 250 submissions in each genre, so be sure to send in your materials early.
