In exciting news, we are thrilled to announce that GCORR (General Commission on Religion and Race) has recently awarded over $325,000 in CORR Action Fund grants to various organizations and initiatives.

What is the CORR Action Fund?

The CORR Action Fund is a grant program created by GCORR to address and combat racial and social inequality, as well as promote inclusivity, diversity, and social justice within faith communities and society as a whole. By providing financial support, the CORR Action Fund empowers organizations and projects that are working towards positive change.

Awarding Over $325,000

In its most recent round of grant awards, GCORR has allocated an impressive amount of over $325,000 to numerous deserving recipients. These grants will support a wide range of initiatives, focusing on areas such as racial justice, intercultural competency, community building, and advancing equity in faith-based organizations.

Racial Justice Initiatives

In order to actively address racial injustice, GCORR has granted funds to organizations that are implementing strategies to dismantle systemic racism and support racial healing and reconciliation efforts. These initiatives aim to create more equitable and inclusive spaces, fostering understanding, empathy, and unity among diverse communities of faith.

Intercultural Competency Projects

To promote intercultural competency, GCORR has awarded grants to initiatives that aim to enhance dialogue and understanding between different cultural, ethnic, and racial groups. By encouraging individuals and communities to engage in intercultural conversations, these projects contribute to the building of bridges, breaking down barriers, and fostering a spirit of inclusivity and fellowship.

Community Building Endeavors

Recognizing the importance of strong and resilient communities, GCORR has provided support to projects focused on community development and empowerment. These initiatives foster relationships, encourage collaboration, and promote justice within local communities, helping individuals thrive and creating positive social change.

Advancing Equity in Faith-Based Organizations

GCORR is committed to advancing equity within faith-based organizations and has awarded grants to projects that aim to address issues of systemic bias and promote fair and inclusive practices. By supporting these initiatives, GCORR helps ensure that faith communities are welcoming, accessible, and affirming spaces for all individuals, regardless of their background, gender, race, or ethnicity.
