Headwaters makes a small number of rapid response grants throughout the year to respond to emerging community challenges and opportunities. 

Headwaters designed rapid response grants to allocate resources quickly and strategically, outside of our traditional grant rounds. We raise and grant out these dollars to community and social change organizations during unexpected and critical moments.   

Rapid response grants offer grantees maximum flexibility, when they need it most. 

The Fiscal Year 2022 Rapid Response grantees are:

• Alanna Morris-Van Tassel Productions
• East Phillips Neighborhood Institute
• Gender Justice
• H.O.T.D.I.S.H. Militia 
• Housing Equity Now St. Paul
• Indigenous Roots
• Our Justice 
• SPIRAL Collective
