Our 2025 granting cycle is now open! The People’s Life Fund looks forward to redirecting resisted war taxes to projects based in Northern California. We offer small grants to groups that are providing essential day-to-day human services which the government is not adequately furnishing, and/or addressing the root causes of a problem by engaging in education or action, in the spirit of nonviolence, aimed at social, economic or political change. Thank you for your interest in applying!
The PLF’s money comes from conscientious war tax resisters in Northern California who deposit or donate all or part of the amount they would otherwise pay to the federal government in income taxes.
The deadline for the 2025 granting cycle is 5 pm, Friday, February 21, 2025.
The maximum grant award is $5,000.
