Matching Challenge

For a limited time, all donations to our Movement Grants will be DOUBLED! Animal suffering is real and massive. But there is hope. Compassionate people around the world are fighting for them.

ACE’s Movement Grants exist to support these committed champions working tirelessly to help animals, often without the recognition, support, and funding they deserve. Don’t miss this special opportunity to have your donation doubled and fund their life-changing work.

The Problem

Billions of animals suffer each year, out of sight and out of mind. Many caring individuals want to help, yet most charitable funding ends up supporting tried and tested solutions in areas with more developed markets. Meanwhile, a significant part of the problem resides in large, informal markets.

75% of the world’s shrimp is farmed in Asia, over 40% of global fish production takes place in China, and animal consumption is rapidly increasing in countries like India and Brazil.

These are the forgotten animals, living in systems hidden from our view, and where suffering is high but support is scarce. If we truly want to reduce animal suffering on a large scale, we must fund work in these overlooked regions. And that’s exactly what ACE’s Movement Grants are designed to do.

Why Support Movement Grants?

Movement Grants is ACE’s strategic grantmaking program that helps build and strengthen the global animal advocacy movement. We use a rigorous selection process, guided by experts, to fund high-impact work. From fishes and chickens to shrimp and insects, our Movement Grants support work where others won’t.

What People Are Saying

I support ACE's Movement Grants because it fosters ambitious, innovative initiatives and advocates not only to create surface-level impact through its grants, but also to grow the larger community geographically, culturally, and strategically. Building a world where all animals can flourish requires a long-run view, and I deeply appreciate ACE for the opportunity to invest in new ideas and encourage bold action in pursuit of a brighter future.

Movement Grants Donor

Many people wanting to help animals ask me for advice about the organizations to which they should donate. My standard answer is to refer them to Animal Charity Evaluators. If we want to bring about the biggest reduction in animal suffering for each dollar we donate, the research ACE does is our best guide.
