CAMPAIGN GRANTS

Eleanor’s Legacy is dedicated to building a new generation of pro-choice
Democratic women leaders and the Campaign Grants program is the most effective
tool we have for achieving that mission. All pro-choice Democratic women running for state and local level office in New York State are eligible to apply for a grant.

ERLC has awarded nearly $1 million in campaign grants to almost 1000 recipients, of which 477 have won their races. In 2009, 163 women from all over New York State received ERLC’s endorsement, financial support and assistance in developing the valuable skills needed to campaign.

The ERLC grant application process begins August 1st of each year and has a deadline of September 7th. Candidates are encouraged to apply online by creating your account with ERLC. By doing this, you can save and edit your application at any point throughout the grant application process. An application will not be considered final until the deadline has passed.

If you have any questions, please email brette@eleanorslegacy.com. You can also call (212) 725-8825 ext 253.
