Wargachuk Academy

No proof. No permission. Just Support.

Mothers are the original creators.
They shape lives, hold communities together, and build futures — often while being overlooked, under-supported, and under-resourced.

This grant exists to flip that script.

Grants for Moms is a global, open-access funding initiative for all mothers — single, married, adopted, chosen, step, spiritual, biological, foster — however you mother, if you mother, you are welcome here. If you’re doing your best to raise a child while holding onto your creativity — or even just trying to remember what that creativity looked like — this space is for you.

We fund grants from $111 to $50,000 to support artistic projects, visions, supplies, healing journeys, and creative expansion. Whether it’s paint and paper or a year of childcare while you make a documentary, we trust that you know what you need.

This program was born out of personal experience — from growing up in foster care and being adopted by a mother who had very little but gave everything she had. We know what it means to survive. We also know what it takes to create while surviving — and how rare it is to be truly supported in that.

Why This Grant Exists

The world demands everything from mothers and gives back almost nothing.

It applauds sacrifice, but rarely funds dreams. It celebrates maternal strength, but refuses to invest in maternal power. The message is clear: give, but don’t ask. Care, but don’t create. Survive, but don’t grow.

We reject that.

We believe creativity is a survival tool, a healing practice, a revolution, and a birthright. We believe mothers deserve time, tools, and trust — not red tape, not judgment, and not silence.

We’re not interested in playing by the rules of traditional funding bodies.
We’re not trying to make you fit into their frameworks.
We’re building new ones.

We don’t:

• Ask for income verification

• Require formal project proposals

• Rank you with a rubric

• Judge your worthiness based on your grammar

We do:

• Believe your story

• Trust your vision

• Give what we can, when we can

• See your potential, even when you’re still figuring it out

You don’t need to be exceptional. You just need to be honest.
You don’t need to be polished. You just need to be real.

If you’ve been carrying a creative idea in your heart and had nowhere to take it —
this is the place. We’re not promising magic. We’re promising movement.
