Overview

Overview

Background

The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) seeks proposals to advance pollinator conservation. The goal of the Monarch Butterfly and Pollinators Conservation Fund (Pollinator Fund) is to protect, conserve, and increase habitat for the monarch butterfly and other native insect pollinators.

Projects should align with NFWF’s Monarch Butterfly Business Plan. The most competitive projects will demonstrate clear benefits to both monarch butterfly and additional at-risk native insect pollinator species. Special consideration will be given to projects benefiting rusty patched bumble bee, Franklin’s bumble bee, Karner blue butterfly, Dakota skipper, Poweshiek skipperling, and Mitchell’s satyr.

Grant awards will range from $200,000 to $300,000. Funding will be awarded for projects up to two years in length following finalization of the grant agreement. Over the past five funding cycles, the average application success rate was 41%.

Funding is provided by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), Bureau of Land Management (BLM), U.S. Forest Service (USFS), Bayer Crop Science, ConocoPhillips, and The Scotts Miracle-Gro Foundation.
