The Social Justice Fund (SJF) provides grants for students looking to use
activism to contribute to the betterment of their communities both locally and
globally. Grants generally range from $100 - $900 depending on need and the
degree to which the activity adheres to the objectives of the Fund. Those
receiving awards of $500 or more will be required to fill out a one-page report
at the completion of the project. To keep the Social Justice Fund going for
future Tufts activists, grantees will be asked to support the Fund later on as
alumni. Seniors may not apply for activities occurring
after graduation. For more information on how the Social Justice Fund
makes its decisions, please consult the
Grant Decision Guidelines.
