The Pollination Project Foundation empowers passionate volunteers across the globe by providing the critical funding they need to uplift their communities, cultures and countries. Recognizing the untapped potential of frontline changemakers, we bridge the gap in resources with grants up to $500. These small yet powerful investments have shown us that even modest support can ignite significant impact. Our dedicated team of 75 grant advisors and 5 country coordinators, all experts in their fields, guide our funding decisions to ensure every dollar fuels meaningful change.
Beyond financial support, The Pollination Project Foundation assists grantees in taking their initial steps towards fundraising and offers first belief in their mission. Additionally, we offer capacity-building workshops, mindfulness retreats to prevent burnout, and resource navigation to ensure that our grantees’ work achieves tangible goals. For farm animal advocates, we are able to offer large initial capital and follow on funding of up to $10,000.

of a seed grant
Mental Health Awareness Month:How Small Grants Spark Global Healing
Location: WORLDWIDE
This Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re celebrating the quiet revolutions happening in communities too often overlooked. In places where mental health care is scarce or stigmatized, a single seed grant from The Pollination Project is sparking powerful change. From anonymous counseling for youth in Uganda, to community healing in Cameroon, to global conversations around climate anxiety, our grantees are proving that one act of belief can become a lifeline. These are stories of courage, compassion, and the extraordinary impact of showing up for one another.
