The New Earth Foundation aims to fund innovative projects that enhance life on our planet and brighten the future, furthering peace.
The grants from NEF support a wide variety of projects in many fields of endeavor, including but not limited to environmental initiatives that are working to help eliminate pollution and save the planet’s ecosystems, community efforts that create models of social sustainability, educational innovations that prepare youth to become the socially responsible leaders of the future, and strategies that offer economic improvement and opportunities. NEF particularly appreciates projects that are replicable so excellent ideas and work can multiply and benefit many.
The foundation prioritizes smaller, newer 501(c)(3) organizations, so the gift can make a more significant contribution to the work of the recipient organization.
Candidates must be tax-exempt as defined by section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Service.
Letters of inquiry are due February 1, 2025, and selected applicants will be invited to submit a full application by March 2025.
