Announcing the Equitable & Resilient Recovery Grant Program

The Sorenson Impact Foundation (SIF) is inviting potential grant recipients to propose solutions that can contribute to a more equitable and resilient recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic crisis. SIF is specifically targeting solutions that enable recovery through developing and growing businesses, as well as the communities they are in, to equitably rebuild coming out of the current social, health and economic crisis. We are targeting solutions across the following three focus areas:

  • Equitable Access to Wealth Creation Through Entrepreneurship: Solutions that enable and empower successful entrepreneurship for underserved or underrepresented communities such as people of color, women and entrepreneurs in rural areas.
  • Democratized Access to Capital and Community Investment: Solutions that enable more equitable access to capital for entrepreneurs in underserved or underrepresented communities. This focus area includes empowering and expanding community investment activity.
  • Workforce Development: Solutions to help communities develop the skills and training required for the jobs of the future in a post-pandemic world.
