About Fos Feminista Fund
A defining feature of Fos Feminista Fund is its use of large, multi-year program support to advance reproductive justice through Fòs Feminista. The biggest recent grant in the record went to International Planned Parenthood Federation Western Hemisphere Region for program support, and the two next-largest grants also supported Fòs Feminista-related work in New York. That pattern points to a funder that backs institution-level execution rather than a broad, one-off grant portfolio. The foundation’s stated work centers on contraception, abortion care, comprehensive sexuality education, gender-based violence services, advocacy, and capacity building for local partners. Its active grant programs also show an emphasis on scaling impact, including global initiatives such as Feminist Futures Free From Violence, Sang Pour Sang (Menstrual Dignity), and capacity-sharing work for partners in the Global South. A competitive awards stream, WestWind Awards, adds a more targeted channel for comprehensive sexuality education projects that use or adapt AMAZE videos and prioritize meaningful youth engagement. Across those programs, the funder consistently supports reproductive health and rights infrastructure, not just isolated projects.
What Fos Feminista Fund Funds
In reproductive justice, the funder backs large-scale implementation through its scaling-impact initiatives, including a global program for sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice. Its grantmaking also includes a general stream for Invest in Local Partners, which covers grantmaking, social enterprise support, flexible loans, institutional strengthening, capacity building, and reproductive health supplies. That mix suggests support for both service delivery and organizational strength. The foundation also maintains named initiatives tied to specific issue areas: Feminist Futures Free From Violence focuses on violence prevention, while Sang Pour Sang centers menstrual dignity and related reproductive justice work. For comprehensive sexuality education, WestWind Awards supports innovative CSE projects that use or adapt AMAZE videos and reach marginalized young people.
How Fos Feminista Fund Gives
Recent grants are tightly clustered at a similar scale: the p25 is $912,593, the median is $918,232, and the p75 is $923,872. That narrow spread indicates a consistent approach to grant sizing. The top recent awards are all program support, and the recipient record shown here reflects repeat support over multiple years rather than isolated one-time giving. Fos Feminista Fund is classified as a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. Unsolicited applications are not part of the active programs listed, which instead describe defined funding streams and initiatives.
