Connecting California Grants is a new funding opportunity to support new & innovative as well as tried & true ways of building social connection, understanding, and cohesion across the state. Grants ranging from $1,000-$5,000 will support "connection events" to bring people together both 1) across difference - in age, culture, geography, race, gender, faith, politics, work, vocation, and more - and 2) to discover what we have in common as people who want to live full and rewarding lives. Connecting California seeks to connect Californians to one another in creative ways in order to understand the diverse cultures of our state, discover what we share, and build a stronger sense of community and connection. We are particularly interested in projects that will reach historically underserved parts of our state through providing relevant, engaging, and meaningful public activities that build mutual understanding.
