<h1>Pocket <span>Change</span></h1>
<h2>A Story of Doing More with Less</h2>
</div>
<div class="wrapper">
<p class="story">Hello!</p>
<p class="story">I’m Regina and I lead a youth nonprofit in Baton Rouge, Louisiana called Bloom. I recently read the Ms. Foundation for Women’s report called <em>Pocket Change: How Women and Girls of Color Do More With Less</em>.</p>
<img src="hello.png" alt="illustration of Regina, sitting on a stool holding the report">
<div style="clear: both;"></div>
<p class="data">Almost ¾ of the organizations interviewed for Pocket Change are “led” by WGOC. To meet criteria for the report, <span>at least 75%</span> of the leaders making financial decisions—whether staff or board members—are WGOC.</p>
<p class="data">Organizations by and for WGOC are at work in every part of the United States, including Puerto Rico, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa.</p>
<p class="story">I was shocked to learn how few dollars are invested in women and girls of color. Out of approximately $67 billion spent annually by foundations on grant making, only $356 million (half of 1%) goes to women and girls of color. That is $5.48 per person each year.</p>

<p class="data">More than 60% of WGOC orgs report having collective leadership structures and about 50% of these also have an executive director.</p>
<p class="data"><span>More than 60%</span> of WGOC orgs were founded in the last ten years.</p>
<p class="story">I founded Bloom in 2014 with three organizer colleagues soon after the police killing of 18 year-old Micheal Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. We were concerned about how state-sanctioned violence against girls and femme-identified youth was being overlooked at the time. In 2017, we gained 501(c)3 status and I became the executive director of Bloom. I started drawing a regular paycheck a year later.</p>

<p class="data">More than ½ of WGOC orgs include trans women and trans girls while just under ½ explicitly include gender nonconforming people who do not identify as women or girls.</p>
<p class="story">Bloom predominantly serves Black girls and femme-identified youth and 20% of folks in our programs identify in other ways. Our mission has expanded from responding to police brutality to amplifying the political voices of youth and training them to organize around issues impacting their lives.</p>

<p class="story">In the early years, limited funding had a real impact on my leadership and Bloom’s existence. For the first two years, we had no grant funding and no paid staff. We raised just enough money from small community events to pay for rent, basic program supplies and gas. We did not have resources to focus on formal fundraising or developing relationships with potential major donors. We just had to make it work.</p>

<p class="data"><span>Grants made to WGOC organizations are $15,000, on average, less than half the amount of the overall median grant size of $35,000.</span></p>
<p class="data">53.4% of WGOC leaders report that grant opportunities do not include the populations or groups they work with. While donors and funders may be interested in funding women and girls of color, this intention is not publicly announced by most.</p>
<p class="story">Things got better for Bloom when we received a two-year $50,000 general operating grant from the Ms. Foundation for Women. That steady, trust-based commitment to funding our operation with unrestricted dollars was breathing room to stabilize and grow. Because of the way Ms. Foundation funded and supported our work, Bloom went from a budget of less than $50,000 to a budget of $140,000 in three years.</p>

<p class="story">Some years are harder than others at Bloom. When the coronavirus pandemic hit in 2020, we switched gears and pooled resources with other local groups to meet our communities’ basic needs.</p>
<p class="story">I worry a lot about the constant stress on my team. I wish Bloom could afford better health insurance. I worry about what would happen if I got seriously ill or had to stop working for some other reason. I’m afraid one of my paid team members will leave for a higher-paying job. Bottom line, I need to focus on long-term sustainability at Bloom.</p>
<p class="story">WGOC orgs like Bloom and leaders like me need funding that will offer us the space to breathe, heal, gather and grow. We cannot continue to operate on fumes. . . or pocket change. We need supporters to join us in the difficult work of transforming this society into one in which WGOC can bloom and thrive! Thank you for taking the time to get to know about our work.</p>

<p>The Ms. Foundation has been dedicated to building women’s collective power for decades. We fund and support the capacity of feminist leaders through learning, connection, restoration, and advocacy. At the Ms. Foundation, we listen to the voices of WGOC leaders who consistently craft the most impactful changes for economic insecurity, incarceration, reproductive justice, violence prevention, and public health crises like COVID-19.</p>
<p>Gifts to the Ms. Foundation support WGOC organizations through our regular grant-making programs and through special initiatives designed to further build the sustainability and capacity of WGOC orgs. Just as the Ms. Foundation is committed to deep, sustained partnership with our grantees, our donors are strongly encouraged to make an annual gift commitment and to regularly review and deepen that commitment.</p>
<p>Join the Ms. Foundation today in supporting all the “Reginas” running amazing organizations for WGOC so that we can transform the future for all of us!</p>
