The fund prioritizes support for 501c3 organizations committed to reproductive justice, focusing on immediate community needs and sustainable solutions. Emphasizing grassroots leadership and innovative approaches, the fund seeks to build a robust infrastructure for reproductive care, ensuring equitable access for all individuals in need.

We do this via several collective funding vehicles, incubated initiatives, and rapid-response funding.
Abortion Bridge Collaborative (ABC) Fund
The Abortion Bridge Collaborative (ABC) Fund was established in the wake of the 2022 Dobbs decision to ensure enduring abortion care across the United States. The ABC Fund moves money rapidly to build critical and emergent infrastructure to protect and advance reproductive justice nationwide.
Grantmaking Priorities
The ABC Fund supports organizations that center reproductive justice in their mission, values, and work as they navigate this new rapidly changing landscape – recognizing immediate needs while also funding the infrastructure necessary to ensure nationwide abortion access in the long term.
ABC Fund is explicitly focusing our support towards work that directly results in increased access to abortion care in communities.
Our primary grantmaking priorities fall within the following areas:

• Strengthening the abortion access ecosystem – including provision, abortion funding, and practical support for abortion seekers

Investing in innovation and experimentation – bold and creative work that creates new or alternative pathways to care, including online pharmacies, self-managed abortion trainings, doula collectives offering community-based care, and organizations utilizing shield laws
Expanding the reach of info-sharing efforts nationwide – projects or resources that disseminate accurate and accessible information about how to obtain safe proximate abortion care

Eligibility

ABC Fund is currently only able to fund eligible 501c3 organizations.

Ineligibility

While ABC Fund recognizes that advocacy, policy, culture change, narrative shift, litigation legal support, and movement building play critical roles in the abortion access movement, those bodies of work fall outside of our grantmaking priorities at this time.This fund is not designed for larger, more well-resourced organizations nor intended to fund projects by those not already deeply involved in the movement for reproductive justice.
