Posted by Move Fund on September 1, 2026

The MOVE Fund 2026 is inviting eligible coalitions and collectives working at the intersection of sport, play, youth development, equity, and community systems to participate in its 2026 funding opportunity. The fund is designed to support collaborative groups seeking to strengthen sport-based youth development, advocate for increased investment in sport and play, and help create local sports systems that are more equitable, positive, and inclusive.

Eligible coalitions and collaboratives can apply for two-year operating grants ranging from $40,000 to $150,000. The opportunity is particularly relevant for organizations and collaborative groups that are working to use sport and play as tools for youth development and broader community change.

Applications for the MOVE Fund 2026 opened on August 24, 2026, and eligible applicants must submit their applications by September 16, 2026.

In addition to the funding opportunity, the MOVE Fund is hosting a MOVE Fund 2026 Webinar on September 2, 2026, where prospective applicants can learn more about the fund and its priorities.
