PRIVATE FUNDS AVAILABLE

Funder:

Rockefeller Foundation's Creativity & Culture Division

Program:

Partnerships Affirming Community Transformation (PACT)

Summary:

PACT is designed to recognize and enhance the critical
role that arts and culture play in fostering the
health of low-income neighborhoods and communities of
color.

This highly competitive program supports projects
undertaken by artists and other cultural professionals
in collaboration with other community members to
express identity, concerns, and aspirations through
the arts and media, building cultural capacity, and
contributing to social change.

In the 2002 funding round, grants will be given to a
range of U.S.-based projects in which community
artists or teams use their artistic and organizing
skills to advance the development of an identified
community, be it geographic (e.g., a neighborhood or
small town), a community of interest (e.g., shipyard
workers, victims of environmental racism), or any
other affinity (e.g., Latino teenagers, elders who use
a senior center).

Grant amounts will range from $10,000 to $50,000 per
project per year, depending on scope and need.
Funding requests may cover project periods ranging
from twelve months to three years.

The grant application must be made by a tax-exempt
organization that is a partner in the process and
which acts in a fiduciary capacity as the formal grant
recipient.
