John Ellerman Foundation
Grants for habitat management and marine conservation
Principal Office: UK
The mission of the John Ellerman Foundation is to advance the well-being of people, society, and the natural world.
The Foundation has three program areas: the arts, environment, and welfare. The program in environment includes limited international grant making.
Grant Programs for Agriculture, Energy, Environment, Natural Resources
Environment. This program area supports UK-based non-governmental organizations in the following two themes:
- Better-managed habitats; and
- Conservation of marine ecosystems.
Eligibility for grants extends to UK-based charities that have an income over £100 thousand.
The Foundation will consider a small number of grants for work in the UK’s Overseas Territories, and exceptionally for marine projects outside UK waters.
Most grants are for two or three years. Ellerman’s minimum grant is £10 thousand, and the average is about £26 thousand.
