The One Hive Foundation Grant

The One Hive Foundation Grant is sponsored by The One Hive Foundation. This grant focuses on promoting pollinator health and ecologically responsible agriculture through funding research and nonprofit initiatives.

The One Hive Foundation makes grants twice annually to nonprofit organizations working to advance the mission, vision, and goals of the Foundation. One Hive also makes travel grants to individuals and organizations. For information about current One Hive Travel Grant Opportunities see here .

We recognize the enormous amount of time researchers and nonprofits spend seeking funds and reporting on grants . One Hive Foundation has a streamlined application and reporting process so that experts in the field can spend more time doing the work of our shared missions (and what really matters!) Streamline the paperwork: We use a two-phase proposal process to simplify and streamline the application process.

In lieu of arduous grant reporting, we encourage opportunities for real-time dialogue and mutual learning. Your time is worth it: We provide a stipend to write and submit proposals to the nonprofits invited to submit a full proposal for the Foundation’s review. Multi-year funding and general operating support: We accept and encourage requests for multi-year funding which provides more sustainable support.

We also accept proposals for general operating support, which allows for flexibility for grantees to pursue their work One Hive will accept requests that align with our Mission, Vision, and Values and one or more of our focus areas. Scientific research focused on the threats to native and managed pollinators and efforts to improve pollinator health.
