7th Grant Cycle Webinar Calendar

We are excited to announce the opening of the International Trans Fund’s 7th Grant Cycle and share with you the dates for the upcoming Draft Review Service webinars and Funding webinars.

The Draft Review Service (DRS) is a collective, online process where trans-led groups can work with ITF staff on their application for a grant. In 2022, we are offering the DRS in 5 open sessions for groups, especially those with less experience writing grant applications, to develop their ITF Application Form. We invite your trans-led group to register in one of the DRS Introductory sessions via Zoom, between Oct. 31st and Nov. 2nd.

During the ITF’s Funding webinars, we will share information about the eligibility criteria, funding priorities and the grantmaking process. We will give helpful tips on how to write a strong and competitive application. There will also be the opportunity to ask our Program Officers questions. We invite your trans-led group to register in one of the Funding Webinar sessions via Zoom, between Nov 3rd and Nov. 9th. We do not recommend that you participate in a funding webinar if you are already taking part in the Draft Review Service:

How To Apply For ITF Funding Video

The ITF created and hosted funding webinars to support trans-led groups to apply to the 5th grant cycle. For those that could not make one of our webinars, we recorded a video with our Program Officer that you can watch at any time. In the video, we share information about the eligibility criteria, funding priorities, and the grantmaking process. We also give helpful tips on how to write a strong and competitive application.

We suggest that you download the application form and guidelines to review while you follow along with the video (here).

We are accepting applications until 5 pm ET on December 4, 2020.

Funding Webinars for the 5th Grant Cycle

If your group has never been funded by the ITF, please join us for either a general or region-specific webinar. Please only register for a region-specific webinar if you are from that region. 

If your group has been funded by the ITF in the past and you are interested in applying for a THRIVE grant, please join us for a webinar for previously funded groups.
