The 49ers announced a commitment to award $5M in grants over the next 10 years to local and national social justice organizations working to create change in the Bay Area. This grant initiative extends the $1M awarded by the team to 10 social justice organizations in September '20. Full details on the next round of grant qualifications will be released later in the NFL season, but eligible nonprofits will once again need to focus on the areas of racial equality in policing, ending mass incarceration, or educational and economic advancement for young black people. The RFP process will take place in the first quarter of '22, and final election of funds will be determined by 49ers reps on the Players Social Justice Council (49ers).
