Choose Your Fund(s)
Plant-Powered Impact fund
Our Plant-Powered Impact Fund nurtures bold ideas and compassionate action. From grassroots campaigns to global policy shifts, we invest in initiatives that elevate plant-based foods and farming as a path to health, justice, and sustainability.
We celebrate the power of plants to nourish communities, heal ecosystems, and awaken empathy. Our Plant-Powered Impact Fund supports changemakers who spark curiosity, shift culture, and invite the public to reimagine what's possible.
Through strategic partnerships and movement-building, we help grow a world where plant-based norms are embraced, celebrated, and woven into everyday life.
Examples: Better Health Better Life, Malnutrition Matters, Plant Based Data
Climate-Friendly Food Fund
Our Climate-Friendly Food Fund unlocks resources for one of the most powerful, yet overlooked and underfunded climate solutions: plant-based food systems!
The Climate-Friendly Food Fund supports impactful and scalable efforts that connect food system transformation with climate action. From grassroots campaigns and culinary education to policy reform and institutional shifts, this fund empowers initiatives that leverage the power of plant-based foods and farming to reduce emissions, restore ecosystems, and reimagine what climate-smart nourishment can look like.
We prioritize work that highlights the climate benefits of plant-based foods and farming, especially projects with co-benefits such as planting food trees to advance both food security and climate resilience. By supporting underfunded, high-impact interventions, this fund accelerates a just transition toward a cooler, cleaner, more compassionate future.
Examples: Youth Climate Save, Food and Climate Alliance, Brighter Green
Dairy-Free Dream Fund
Our Dairy-Free Dream Fund propels outreach, education, innovation, and celebration to accelerate the shift to plant-based milk and other non-dairy delights.
From school meal reform and institutional procurement to grassroots campaigns and cultural storytelling, this fund invests in bold efforts that challenge dairy’s grip on public health, climate policy, and food systems.
We prioritize initiatives that spotlight the hidden costs of dairy: from vast environmental degradation and animal suffering to the disproportionate hardships that befall low-income and lactose-intolerant communities.
Whether through policy change, culinary empowerment, or strategic partnerships, our Dairy-Free Dream Fund helps seed a more just, nourishing, climate-friendly (and delicious) future.
Examples: Switch4Good, Mothers Against Dairy, Afro-Vegan Society Dairy-Free Future.
Seed to 2030 advocacy Fund
Together, we’re not just weathering the storm, we’re preparing the soil for a more fertile future.
Our Seed to 2030 Advocacy Fund is a hybrid philanthropic vehicle designed to grow financial resources now so we can relaunch our Global Grants program at scale to amplify high-impact interventions across the plant-based and animal advocacy sectors during the next political cycle.
Blending the flexibility of a donor-advised fund model and the nourishing power of global (re)granting our Seed to 2030 Fund sidesteps the rigidity of traditional models while offering real-time tax benefits and long-term impact.
Contributions accumulate over time, alongside compounding interest from safe investments in CDs and money markets. While rates fluctuate, the fund’s strength lies in its ability to grow and deploy larger, more meaningful grants when the political and economic climate better supports systemic change.
Seed to 2030 Advocacy Fund can stand alone or complement other funds.
Donors may align their contributions with specific priorities and regions, or entrust us to allocate with integrity and strategic foresight. It’s built for those who value stewardship, resilience, and movement durability.
