Seeding a community
of #changemakers
We use the money we raise to invest in grassroots projects by people who seek to create a more compassionate world. Every day of the year, our network selects a new project that will receive $1,000 in seed funding. As that project blossoms, leaders can access capacity-building support, encouragement, and connectivity with others. Through these efforts, we seed a vibrant community of global changemakers who seek to spread compassion in the world for the benefit of all.
At TPP, we believe in people, so we invest in people.

When students need to learn how to add or subtract, we teach them Math. When they need to know how to write a paper, we teach them English but what do we do when they need to learn how to love? That is the question Irene Greaves is answering with a ground-breaking program she created that teaches skills on how to cultivate self-love and love for others aptly titled, Lovescaping®.

The stories behind the grants

The grant was a life changing to the community we served as it has restored hope to the children who almost lost hope for a bright future and this has been made possible with the TPP grant.

You folks ROCK!!! The Pollination Project process should be the standard that all grant givers use. From the initial application submission through the entire process, all the way to this point...your communication skills are unsurpassed! Thank you
Together We Build An Abundant World
Food insecurity, lack of employment, gender inequality and minimal healthcare resources are issues that plague communities all over the world. These projects prove that everyone can learn a skill to rejuvenate the planet and give voice to others who struggle with similar hurdles.
“We’re very grateful for the Pollination Project’s support. This organization was
the first (outside of our first supporters) to believe in our mission.
As a result of this grant, we have gained credibility in the refugee community and will be able to continue to grow and work towards achieving our mission.”
