I’m writing today to let you know that starting this July, The Roddenberry Foundation is awarding a total of $1 million to 20 activists, changemakers, and community organizers from across the United States who are tackling one of these four issue areas: 

Civil Rights
Climate Change and Environmental Justice
LGBTQIA and Women’s Rights
Immigration and Refugee Rights

Fellows will each receive a $50,000 award, as well as tailored support, to implement a project or initiative that has direct impact in one of these four areas. It seems that your work might align well with this fellowship and we wanted to encourage you to consider submitting an application. Applications go live on July 25th - in the meantime, you can get more information about our judges, process, and goals on our website <http://roddenberryfoundation.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=6434ac7f8a4d390f78f6d4b25&id=f52c253636&e=42dd1b5342>.

In addition, if you know of anyone else who might be interested in applying, we would very much appreciate if you shared this with them! We've attached a promotional toolkit <http://roddenberryfoundation.us13.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=6434ac7f8a4d390f78f6d4b25&id=b90f549e0c&e=42dd1b5342> that contains sample media messages, an email template, and more, to make sharing the news as easy as possible.
