How to use this list

A foundation appears here because its own tax return shows grants whose stated purpose matches animal welfare. Start with funders whose typical grant is close to what you need and whose past recipients look like your organization. Open a profile to see the actual grants and any application instructions.

Many private foundations give only to organizations they already know. Those are marked Invitation Only. A Historical Funder made grants in the past, which does not mean it is accepting proposals now.

Facts on this page come from the foundation's own IRS Form 990-PF filings as published by the IRS. Grantvello does not know whether a foundation is accepting proposals right now: a past grant is not an open opportunity. Always confirm current guidelines with the funder before applying.
