Ideal Applicant
Mid-to-large U.S.-based 501(c)(3) conservation organizations or fiscal-sponsor intermediaries running national or international marine conservation programs, especially projects focused on marine protected areas and coral reef protection.
Good Fit
- • A proven track record in ocean conservation or establishing/managing marine protected areas.
- • Capacity to manage large institutional grants or to act as an intermediary/fiscal sponsor.
- • Programmatic alignment with coral reef protection, 30x30 or large-scale marine initiatives.
- • U.S. 501(c)(3) status (applicant restriction is stated).
Geography
In the latest year grants were paid across three states with about 75% of dollars going to New York; the foundation has funded multiple states historically but the most recent giving is regionally concentrated.
Recipient Variety
In 2024 the foundation made six grants to only four distinct recipients, and all four were repeats from the prior filing, indicating a narrow recipient set in the latest observed year despite a broader recipient list in 2022.
New Applicants
The foundation provides public application instructions and accepts online letters of inquiry, but observed behavior across two years shows recurring support to a small set of large partners and no new recipients in 2024, so an unfamiliar applicant could apply but may face limited likelihood of entry.
