The Pollination Project seeks to unleash goodness and expand compassion all over the world. To that end, through their pioneering Daily Grant program, they make micro-grants 365 days a year to grassroots global change agents who seek to spread compassion in their communities and in the world for the benefit of all. Their daily grant making began on January 1, 2013, and since then, they have funded a different project every single day. All qualified applicants in any funding area are considered within the guidelines of this program.

They are honoured to learn about your project and vision. They hope this is the beginning of a meaningful relationship with you, one that starts with seed funding but expands as you connect and engage with their global community of 4,000+ changemakers. They look forward to reading your application.

What types of work are The Pollination Project’s small grants designed to support?

At The Pollination Project, their goal is to contribute to the creation of a more just, sustainable, and compassionate world for all. They work towards that goal through their support of community-driven grassroots initiatives that empower individuals and inspire others.

This means that rather than narrowly defining the issues or types of work that they fund or the geographical regions in which they make grants, they instead choose to be led by their applicants. So long as a project fits their criteria, they can consider any charitable work anywhere in the world which moves us towards a better world.

Eligibility criteria

• TPP accepts applications from individuals, informally organised groups and organisations, and formally registered or incorporated not for profit organisations based anywhere in the world.
• While they try to make sure the application process is open to as many people as possible, they do have a few rules about who is eligible to apply for funding from TPP. These rules are designed to ensure they comply with all legal requirements that govern the grantmaking and to support them in identifying those projects which are best aligned with their mission and values.
