Combined with the totally unexpected benefit of being in the Huffington Post and reaching an audience of non-urine enthusiasts, this grant was a game changer. Prior to receiving the grant and its publicity, I was not able to successfully excite people about the...

The recognition that the grant represents(ed), i.e. that someone outside of me felt that the vision is worth supporting. Recognition from entities like TPP is also like a vetting. A thumbs-up / green light from TPP instantly makes a statement about the integrity and...

The grant has acted as a seed for developing additional ideas regarding the West Bank Wall Project. The certainty about the project that the Pollination funds have provided has made it possible to encourage others to get involved, bringing with them resources,...

I cannot express to you how you have impacted my life and those of my students. Your generosity has enabled me to give my students more than just shoes and dance wear. You have gifted them confidence, hope, and humility. My students are strong, but sometimes come from...

Working with The Pollination Project has brought great joy into my life, and reminded me of who I am, and where I am going. All throughout the process, I have felt informed, considered, and followed-through. I had forgotten, well maybe not forgotten, but my memory was...

Being a TPP grantee has increased my credibility as an international gender justice and social change advocate. When unique organizations such as yours recognize and reward people for their work, it signals a job very well done and lends integrity to their efforts. To...

The grant provided by the Pollination Foundation has helped me to realize that there are still people in the world willing to help others, in order to make a positive difference in their lives. It shows that in a world where so many things go wrong, there are those of...

When we went through the process of applying for the TPP grant and then received it, these funds took the organizational maturity to another level. Overnight, we went from just being accountable to each other, to also being accountable to an external party that had...

TPP funding to some is a small fund, but to me it’s a big funding because it comes with multiple benefits such as publicity, networking and unlocking community hidden potentials through trainings and starting small ventures like ours that one never thought to fund and...

The grant from the Pollination Project has provided me with not only the financial support necessary to explore the future of this project, but the encouragement to continue to dream of new possibilities and avenues for expansion. I am very proud to be supported by an...

It’s hard to start establishing funding and receiving grants, regardless of the ideas behind your projects. But TPP takes that risk and gives that first step up and with the TPP grant funding just a little portion of our work it has opened the door to many other...

I applied for the Pollination Project Grant the year before our first season. During that period it was still up in the air whether the Market Shares Program would actually come to fruition. The process of applying for the grant and the questions the Pollination...

Having TPP’s backing elevated my project. I attracted more sponsors. Being a TPP grantee helped me sign up Whole Foods as a sponsor. They provided vegan food for our opening night reception. From there, it just became easier to get more sponsors.

The Pollination Project was the first organization to recognize the potential and validity of my program to take free cartooning lessons to children in hospitals. That seed money helped to motivate and inspire me. When I first began doing these programs, I was...
