Project Drawdown is honored to be awarded US$150,000 over the next three years from the Mighty Arrow Family Foundation.

This grant from the Mighty Arrow Family Foundation – a longtime partner and supporter – will bolster Project Drawdown’s ongoing work to drive bold, science-based climate action in the world. The funding will help expand a variety of Project Drawdown activities, from identifying and analyzing climate solutions to deep dives into critical issue areas such as food and agriculture and biodiversity.

“The Mighty Arrow Family Foundation fosters the kind of trust, ambition, and collaborative spirit that climate action demands,” says Project Drawdown Managing Director Elizabeth Bagley, Ph.D. “We are honored to partner with their team and energized by what we will accomplish with their support.”

The Mighty Arrow Family Foundation grant will support the ongoing build-out of Drawdown Explorer, a free, game-changing platform that uses the best available data to lay out pathbreaking new strategies for accelerating climate action. Project Drawdown will also use the funds for new programming related to climate education and leadership training.

“Project Drawdown’s library of climate solutions has been a key resource for Mighty Arrow as our board prioritizes what investments we need to make today to have the greatest impact for the future of the communities and ecosystems we call home,” says Mighty Arrow Family Founation Executive Director Jordana Barrack. “The solutions are out there, and thanks to Project Drawdown, we know what to focus on. We hope more foundations like us will find this helpful too.”
