Ideal Applicant
Mid-sized or national environmental/conservation organizations and documentary/film projects that work on ocean or climate issues, especially those with a track record of high-impact storytelling or policy-facing programs.
Good Fit
- • Projects focused on ocean conservation, marine science, or climate storytelling.
- • Organizational capacity to manage grants in the $10k–$150k range.
- • A demonstrable track record in documentary film, impact campaigns, or national advocacy.
- • Relationships or referrals from organizations already in the foundation’s portfolio.
Geography
Observed grants span eight states with most dollars going outside the foundation state, showing a multi-state/national giving footprint rather than a strictly local focus.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 21 distinct recipients and a high share of new grantees (15 new recipients), and over three years the foundation funded many different organizations despite some dollar concentration among top recipients.
New Applicants
Direct application is formally limited (the foundation states it funds preselected applicants and there is no public website), yet the observed giving shows substantial turnover and many new grantees, so new entrants can be added but are unlikely to gain access through a public application.
