OUR GRANTS

Uplifting Organizations. Sustaining the Front Lines.

The AMA Dunn Foundation is dedicated to fueling the critical fight against human trafficking and domestic violence. We believe that creating sustainable change requires not only strong systemic solutions, but also well-supported teams.

To honor Mary Ann’s legacy of bringing joy and care to advocates, we distribute our funding through two distinct pathways:

• Strategic Partner Grants (By Invitation Only): Throughout the year, our board proactively identifies, vets, and issues private grants to established organizations whose missions and operations directly align with our core values. We do not accept unsolicited proposals for general operating support.

• Staff Wellness & Appreciation Grants (Open Application): Every Fall, we host an open grant cycle specifically for non-profits working in the trafficking and domestic violence spaces. These unique grants are exclusively dedicated to funding staff appreciation events, wellness initiatives, and team retreats—giving tireless frontline advocates the space to rest, recharge, and combat burnout.

Check back here in the Fall for our official guidelines, eligibility criteria, and the open application link.

While our strategic grants are primarily by invitation, we are always eager to connect with organizations doing exceptional work in our space. If you believe your non-profit's mission deeply aligns with ours, please reach out via our [Contact Page] to introduce yourself and request an introductory call.
