Goldman Sachs Group has announced the Black Women Impact Grants program as part of its One Million Black Women initiative to fund an open-access grants program for Black women-led and Black women-serving nonprofits.

The program, funded by the Goldman Sachs Foundation, will select fifty Black women-led nonprofits to receive general operating funding ranging from $50,000 to $250,000 over two years. Organizations must align with at least one of the seven impact areas of One Million Black Women: healthcare, education, housing, digital connectivity, financial health, access to capital, and job creation and workforce advancement.

Organizations must be a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) organization with a focus on serving Black women and girls. Qualifying organizations must also have Black women in organizational and/or programmatic leadership and have annual operating budgets of between $250,000 and $1 million.

Initial applications are due March 11, 2022, and selected eligible applicants will be invited to submit additional information in a call-back stage. Award decisions will be made in June 2022.
