At the 2024 Fall Retreat, EGA released the newest findings on the What, Where, How and Who are Environmental Grantmakers Funding based on 2022 grantmaking data tracked by EGA’s TTF program.
In 2022, we recorded over 15,000 environmental grants given by EGA members, totalling more than $2.7 billion, an 18% increase from 2021. The grants were given to over 7,000 grantees across the globe. This report highlights updated demographic data analysis, reflecting over-time shifts in EGA members’ grantmaking to BIPOC-led groups and a new state-level domestic funding breakdown by grantee location. The report documents progress in more equitable distribution of environmental philanthropic resources over time, while revealing the existing disparities in terms of race, geography, issue and strategy focuses.
