About This Fund
Mission of Our Power Richmond
The Richmond Our Power Coalition is a network of local community organizations combating the many intersections of oppression facing our city. We fight for sustained access and control over our housing, food, air, land and water, while engaging in the meaningful practice of co-governance that centers the most marginalized members of our communities, who are enduring environmental, social, and political inequities produced by the extractive economy. With the leadership of our local community members, we are proud to model what a Just Transition looks like in Richmond.
