Overview

Celebrated the last Saturday of April every year, Save The Frogs Day is the world’s largest day of amphibian education and conservation action. To ensure the success of our worldwide efforts, SAVE THE FROGS! offers Save The Frogs Day Grants to dedicated groups who are organizing Save The Frogs Day events and seeking financial assistance.

Funding Amount

Save The Frogs Day Grants generally average US$300.

If you have an exceptional event planned, or a series of events, you can request up to US$750.

If you wish to serve as the distributor of grant funds to multiple groups in your country, you can request more than $750, but first contact us with details and gain approval prior to applying.

The total amount of disbursements each year will be based on the financial support received from the SAVE THE FROGS! community, so we encourage and appreciate your donation to SAVE THE FROGS!.

Timeline

Grant applications will be accepted beginning February 1st.

Grant applications must be submitted by March 1st at 11:59pm Los Angeles time. Any application received after that will not be reviewed until March of the following year and no exceptions will be made.

Decisions will be announced by March 31st

Funds to successful applicants will be disbursed by April 10th.

Final reports should be submitted by May 15th.

Grantwriting Tip #1:
Always submit your grant proposals a week or two prior to the deadline. This helps ensure you will not be rushed; and that the grantors see your application first, fall in love with it, and want it to win.

What We Do And Do Not Fund

What we do and do not fund is clearly described on the SAVE THE FROGS! Grants page. We suggest you read it prior to applying.

As a brief summary, we fund projects that demonstrate a clear benefit to the conservation of amphibian populations. Projects could be centered around research, education, policy, and/or habitat. If your project is scientific research, how will you translate your science into action? Be sure to explain in your application.
