Apply for a Grant

Access programs that can change your life. No gatekeepers. No committees. The community decides.

How It Works

01

Check Eligibility

Review the criteria to ensure you qualify. Thrive Grant is open to adults in the U.S. who are seeking personal growth and healing but lack financial access to quality programs.

02

Complete the Application

Answer a short set of questions about your situation, goals, and the type of program you're seeking support for. No lengthy essays—we respect your time.

03

Community Review

Your application (anonymized) goes to our community voting process. The community decides who receives grants—not gatekeepers or committees.

04

Receive Your Grant

If selected, you'll be connected with your program and supported throughout the 4-month grant period, with optional outcome check-ins.

Eligibility Overview

We want to make this as accessible as possible. Here's who can apply:

  • Adult (18+) residing in the United States
  • Seeking access to personal growth, healing, or mental wellness programs
  • Unable to afford the program on your own at this time
  • Willing to participate in optional anonymous outcome reporting
  • Not currently receiving the same type of program through another funded source

Full eligibility criteria are available in the application. If you're unsure, apply anyway—the process will clarify.

Common Questions

Is my application kept private?

Yes. Your personal information is never shared. Applications that go to community voting are fully anonymized—voters see your story, not your identity. See our Privacy Policy.

What programs are eligible?

We fund access to evidence-based personal growth and healing programs, including but not limited to therapy, somatic work, EMDR, and structured personal development programs. Full details are in the application.

How long does the process take?

After submission, applications are reviewed within 2 weeks. Community voting takes place on a rolling basis. Grant decisions are communicated by email.

Can I apply if I'm currently in therapy?

Yes, as long as you're not already receiving funded support for the same program. We encourage you to describe what additional access would mean for you.
