Building and strengthening the global animal advocacy movement

Movement Grants is our grant program aimed at building and strengthening the global animal advocacy movement. We are interested in funding groups working on various approaches to animal advocacy, especially those that are underfunded, target large numbers of animals, and are in regions with a relatively small animal advocacy movement.

Our impact

Animal Charity Evaluators' Recommended Charity Fund is my favorite place to give. I love being able to trust that my donation will be expertly allocated to where it can make the greatest impact for animals most in need. I even have the Fund in my will, and can rest easy knowing my giving will continue having an outsized impact for animals far into the future.
