Culture & Animals Foundation Grant Program

Culture & Animals Foundation Grant Program

Deadline: 31-Jan-22

Applications are now open for the Culture & Animals Foundation Grant Program.

Funding Information
  • The number of grants varies from year to year. On average, CAF awards fewer than 20 grants annually.
  • Grant amounts range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars.
Types of Projects

CAF funds academic and artistic projects that raise public awareness about animal rights. Grants are awarded in three categories: Research (scholarly projects about animal advocacy and its cultural roots and impact); Creativity (original work by artists and thinkers that expresses positive concern for animals); and Performance (public performances and exhibitions to raise awareness of animal advocacy).

Ineligible Projects

CAF does not fund “hands-on” projects, including animal rescue, public protest or trap-neuter-release programs. CAF also does not support species conservation projects, unless they include a commitment to animal rights and fit into one of their three categories of creativity, performance, or research. CAF does not fund projects that consist entirely of attending or speaking at a conference or conferences. It does not fund book production (CAF does support research and writing). CAF does not fund indirect costs: no portion of a CAF grant may be used for “administrative costs,” “overhead,” or any other form of indirect cost.

Eligibility Criteria

CAF accepts grant applications from any country.
