🌊Resistance is only natural!

🍄‍🟫Third Wave Fund’s grantee partners are digging deep this year, tapping into underground wells of creativity and courage as they resist fascism and fight for gender justice. To sustain their appetites for risk, resistance, and joy, we’re channeling at least $3.7 million to QTBIPOC-led movements in 2025, and we’re counting on our community to help make that happen.

💐In celebration of all the many shapes and forms that resistance can take, we worked with Artist-In-Residence Chi Nwosu (@itschinwosu) to represent powerful plants and animals from some of the many places our team and grantee partners make home. And good news - you can bring this gorgeousness home with you.

🌼Become a new monthly donor at any amount , and receive a set of stickers featuring art from this collaboration with Chi! Already a monthly donor? Give twice this month (or in December) and we’ll send the stickers your way to thank you for digging deeper when our communities need it most. Not able to give $$$ but still want to support? Share this post or just get in where you fit in with your local QTBIPOC gender justice groups!

🌱Calling all nature fans! See any of your faves? Consider this your invitation to nerd out in the comments!

🌊Deepen your solidarity, let resources flow.

A message from our Comms team 📢

Despite this administration’s attempts to alienate, criminalize, suppress, and harm our movements for gender justice and liberation, we will continue to prioritize interdependence, creativity, and ultimately securing the bag for our grantee partners—no matter what comes our way. Our duty to resource and amplify grassroots, gender justice activism and organizing remains the same, but due to heightened surveillance, shadowbanning, and violently-biased algorithms, we are being called to shift our social media tactics.

We’ll be shifting what we share on this platform so that we not only keep our grantee partners and TWF staff as safe as possible, but also so that we are using social media in the most impactful ways. Swipe to learn more about additional changes our Comms team is making, and to get the most up-to-date Third Wave Fund-related resources and information sign up for our newsletter at bit.ly/twfnewslettersignup.

Our commitment to social justice and collective liberation runs not only through what we do, but how we do it. We will always position ourselves firmly alongside our grantee partners working vigorously to activate young people in confronting power and ending all forms of oppression. Gender justice can only truly be achieved if all forms of oppression cease to exist, and that must include an end to imperialism, militarism, settler-colonialism, ableism, anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia. In these unbearable times of violence and grief, we turn to the organizing work of our current and former grantee partners, such as @wearedissenters, @palestinianfeministcollective, @hearttogrow, @vigilantlove, @jahajee_sisters, @majdalcenter, @crutches_and_spice, @muslimsforjustfutures, and @queercrescent, and visionary organizations like @jewishvoiceforpeace, @ifnotnoworg, and @uspcn for their leadership, critical analysis, and calls to action. We uplift their calls for a ceasefire now in Gaza, and an end to the occupation of Palestine.

They didn't just forget us. They erased us — on purpose. On May 21st at 5:30 PM PST, NYT bestselling author Dr. Anna Malaika Tubbs, @feminist’s Aisha Becker-Burrowes, and journalist Danielle Robay are coming together for Erased & Reclaimed — a national conversation on the 250-year-old system that was never designed to include us. And what we build when we take it back.

Register at our 🔗 in bio

Hosted by @womensfoundca, Third Wave Fund is proud to be a partner for this virtual event alongside @feminist, @genderjusticephilly, @msfoundation, @womendonors, @wfcolorado, @womensfndnmn, @womensfdnsouth, @womenmovingmillions, and Impact Collective.

International Workers’ Day, also known as May Day, is an annual reminder to us all: workers have always been the ones to disrupt, build, and reimagine new worlds.

Rooted in the legacy of the Haymarket affair, International Workers’ Day calls us to honor the ongoing fight for dignity, safety, and self-determination — led by those most exploited and excluded under capitalism.

📣Today, we’re uplifting QTBIPOC, sex worker-led organizing that is transforming what worker justice looks like in practice. 📣

DecrimSexWorkCA (@decrimswca) and Trans Income Project (@trans_income_project) —both multi-year grantee partners, are building power at the intersections of racial justice, trans liberation, and economic justice while centering sex workers and trans communities. From statewide organizing for the full decriminalization of sex work to direct cash assistance, mutual aid, and community-based care, these grantee partners are disrupting business as usual and creating conditions where our communities can survive, organize, and thrive.

This is what worker power looks like. This is what solidarity looks like. Honor May Day beyond May 1st by supporting these gender justice organizations carrying on the long legacy of disrupting capitalist power dynamics and centering workers.

❤️‍🔥Happy May Day.

Can you imagine our movements without vibrant posters filling the streets at our marches and rallies? Or what about the signs of solidarity in our neighbors’ windows that ease our minds and bodies on our walk home? We can’t, and that’s why we’re excited to launch our 2026 Artist-in-Residence program at Third Wave Fund!

Our Artist Residency is an annual, virtual, and paid ($10,000) opportunity supporting emerging visual artists (based in the U.S.) in strengthening their practice of creating art for social change. The artist will support Third Wave Fund’s visibility and engagement as a by-and-for community funder, amplifying our vision of gender justice and liberation, and mobilizing our network of activist donors.

The artist will collaborate with us on two digital illustrations and a short-form, animated reel to bolster our storytelling and fundraising efforts on our digital platforms. ❗Please note: We are only accepting applications from visual artists specific to digital illustration and animation at this time.

Could it be you? Or a visual artist you know and love that you can send this to? We’re accepting applications now through Thursday, May 13, 2026. You can learn more about eligibility, the scope of work, our timeline, and more at the link in bio 🌱🎨

Just last week, the U.S. Senate voted to lift a 20‑year mining ban near Minnesota’s Boundary Waters—putting clean water, tribal treaty rights, and sacred land at risk.

That same assault on Indigenous sovereignty is happening right now in the Black Hills. At Ṗe’Ṡla—a sacred site of ceremony for the Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota people since time immemorial—a mining company plans to tear into the Earth, threatening the region’s water supply. Despite years of organizing, advocacy, and a Memorandum of Understanding meant to protect this land, the U.S. Forest Service issued a permit to Pete Lien & Sons to drill for graphite directly next to this sacred site.

When land is treated as a site for violent extraction and not a living relative, so are the people most connected to it. Indigenous sovereignty and LANDBACKmovements are inseparable from gender justice and queer liberation. Ongoing theft and violation of land is directly tied to the theft of Indigenous peoples’ bodily autonomy - especially Indigenous women, girls, Two-Spirit, trans, and queer people, who face disproportionately high rates of disappearance and murder across the U.S.

We refuse to be passive on Earth Day. Follow ndncollective, @bhcleanwateralliance, @oln.yc, and @savethebwca to join the fight to protect Ṗe’Ṡla, Craven Canyon, and Custer and Fall River counties from predatory mining. Defending land is defending gender justice, and the right of Indigenous communities to live, thrive, and self-determine.

About the artist: Robert Harold Bordeaux is a member of the Siċaƞġu Lak̇ot̄a Oyat̄e, writer, and activist from Spearfish, South Dakota. In his writing, he touches on this journey connecting with his Lak̇ot̄a roots as he learns from Uƞc̄i Mak̇a what it means to be a good relative and ancestor. Their latest work, Prairie Bones, is a collection of poems about reconnecting with Lak̇ot̄a kin, culture, and learning what it means to stand alongside all the relatives of this land to fight for a better future.

For Black History / Futures Month, we’re honoring Black-led organizing that doesn’t just imagine liberation,but builds it 🛠️✨

Across the U.S. and Territories, our 100+ grantee partners aretrailblazing bold, material futures rooted in care, autonomy, and collective power. This month, we’re uplifting the work of @roseinthedark, @fanmsajinc, @twocc_org, and @bdlinitiative whoare resourcing and centering the visionary leadership and knowledge ofBlack sex workers, Black trans women, Black migrants, and Black mothers to build systems of care and safety that allow for freedom.

As our communities navigate ongoing anti-Blackness, criminalization, border violence, and attacks on queer and trans life, these organizations are doing more than resisting. They are creating mutual aid networks, spaces for healing and pleasure, leadership pipelines, policy interventions, and community-based safety strategies.

Swipe to meet these powerful organizations. Follow them. Resource them. And give them their flowers. Black futures are being built in real time.
