Announcing Spring 2023 Grants
During the Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation’s (ZSR’s) May board meeting, ZSR’s Board of Trustees awarded State-Level Systemic Change Strategy grants totaling $651,250 to seven organizations across North Carolina.
ZSR’s State-Level Systemic Change Strategy supports state, regional and local organizations, coalitions, or collaboratives that are working to achieve systemic change at the state level within and across the following priority areas: Advancing Public Education, Fostering a Healthy and Sustainable Environment, Promoting Social and Economic Justice, and Strengthening Democracy. We recognize that each of these four areas intersect in multiple ways and look for approaches that not only strengthen each, but also work across them.
