Mission
Climate Emergency Fund is a 501c(3) non-profit organization; we are a bridge between philanthropists and grassroots campaigns. We make strategic grants to empower the movement that is waking up the public to the climate emergency through nonviolent disruption. We fund highly ambitious climate groups building the much needed people power that can overcome the power of the fossil fuel industry and pressure the government to treat climate breakdown like the emergency that it is. Our grantees disrupt normalcy, build narrative power, and force governments to take concrete steps toward a just, livable, zero-emissions future.
