We are honored to introduce you to the organizations across the Midwest who have received the 2024 Midwest Frontline Fund grant. The organizations in this year’s cohort represent a broad spectrum of environmental justice work across the region—meet them here!

Fort Berthold Protectors of Water and Earth Rights (POWER) is dedicated to ensuring that the voices of tribal communities are heard in the fight against climate change and pollution. Through public awareness campaigns, such as the statewide ads calling on President Biden to strengthen federal rules on flaring, and continued advocacy for stricter EPA and BLM regulations, Fort Berthold POWER is leading the charge for environmental justice on tribal lands.

Anthena joined our team last month as the Urban Outreach Program Director for the Thriving Communities Grantmaking Program. She holds a wealth of expertise in environmental justice work, and in managing partnerships to advance social equity and inclusive climate action. Please join us in welcoming Anthena onboard!
