Greetings! At this moment, sustaining our movements is made easier when we are funded. Funding can support our capacity to create, acquire, and redistribute resources of all kinds. At Artistic Apothecary, we are aware that our dreams and programs, our effort and presence, our bodies and minds, deserve to flourish and receive nourishment. Money helps. We have been building up lists of grants and funds, and are sharing them with you all here!

If there is an idea you are dreaming of, a hope you been sleeping on, or a initiative you already put in motion, consider this a sign! Your dreams, spirit, body, and mind are deserving. Apply for that grant! If you do not get it, you can always apply for another one. Across all industries most folks receive 33% of the grants or opportunities they apply for. If you do receive one, what is possible? We believe in you. :)

Grant lists below include a mix of grants geared toward Trans and Queer communities; Environment, Food growing, and Conservation activities; and Reproductive, Birth, and Health-focused activities. Some grants are for groups while others are for individuals. Some require a 501(c)(3) non-profit status or fiscal sponsor while others do not!
