WHAT THE FUND WILL SUPPORT?

• Applications with a primary objective of creating long-term change in society by addressing the causes of injustice and inequality
• Groups addressing issues that face a particular community that are led by that community
• Groups that struggle to get funding elsewhere, particularly if other funders might consider them to be "too radical."
• All types of non-profit organisations, including groups that are not formally registered.

The decision making process:

Funding decisions are made collectively by Edge Fund members, who cover a broad range of issues and communities and income levels.

Through members’ meetings they discuss next steps, any issues that have arisen and decisions that need to be made, and as a group decide how to move forward.

Decisions are made by consensus whenever possible, or otherwise by majority vote. Some discussions take place by email or over Zoom. They also have a Core Group of around 5-10 members who do the background work before meetings, to prepare proposals for members to discuss.
