Rapid Response Micro-Grants
Overview:
The Frontline Media Network’s Rapid Response Micro-Grants are dedicated to supporting frontline climate and environmental justice organizations by providing up to $6,000 in multimedia storytelling support services (photo, video, written) for campaigns that urgently require visual media to engage target audiences and deepen their impact.
Grant services include working with the FMN team to identify the most impactful storytelling deliverable, production of that deliverable in collaboration with community groups, and co-creation of distribution strategy designed to reach target audiences.
Your organizations qualifies for this grant if:
You identify as a small to medium-sized frontline group organizing within the realm of environmental and climate justice.
You have a communications lead who is eager to engage with our team to co-create visual media that supports your campaign.
You are a frontline group actively organizing in the environmental and climate justice space (policy institutions and think-tanks are not well suited for this micro-grant.)

Potential for impact of storytelling output on campaign/organizing strategy
Availability of a communications point person to help distribute the visual media
