We created the National Resilience Fund to give direct financial support to vital businesses and workers in community-based food systems, through local Slow Food chapters and groups.  We recently granted funds to 23 community initiatives. 

We just opened applications for Round Two of the National Resilience Fund! As part of our commitment to equity and justice, and becoming an antiracist organization, we are dedicating a minimum of 50% of Round Two funding to Black-led food initiatives in local communities. We are thankful for your contributions for a second round of funding.
