About 350org Action Fund
The foundation is focused squarely on climate-political mobilization, funding 350.org and its state and regional action affiliates to run get-out-the-vote and electoral organizing campaigns. Grants are explicitly targeted to state-level chapters and a national coordinating body, indicating a strategy of supporting grassroots climate advocacy to influence elections and public policy. The giving is ideologically aligned (climate justice/advocacy) and operationally focused on voter engagement rather than general program support.

About 350org Action Fund
350org Action Fund centers its giving on get-out-the-vote work for climate politics, with grants directed to 350.org and affiliated state and regional action groups. The largest recent grant on file is $125,000 to 350org in Boston for GOTV, a sign that the funder supports a national coordinating hub alongside local campaign organizations. In the recent grant list, the foundation also backed 350 Wisconsin Action twice, including a $50,000 grant in 2025 and another $50,000 grant in 2023, both for voter mobilization. That repeated support points to a campaign model built around state-level electoral organizing rather than one-off project awards. The same pattern appears in New Hampshire, Colorado, Minnesota, and the Bay Area, where grants support chapter-level outreach tied to climate policy and elections. Across the available 990 record, the funder reported $305,000 in annual grants and $378,810 in total assets, indicating a relatively focused grantmaking operation. Leadership is listed under Anne Jellema.
What 350org Action Fund Funds
The foundation’s grantmaking is tightly tied to climate advocacy and electoral engagement. In Wisconsin, it gave $50,000 to 350 Wisconsin Action Inc in 2025 for get out the vote work, and an equal $50,000 to 350 Wisconsin Action in 2023 for the same purpose. In New Hampshire, it supported 350 Nh Action with $50,000 in 2023 and later gave $9,000 to 350 New Hampshire in 2025, again for GOTV. Its national coordination arm, 350org, received $125,000 in 2023, showing that the funder supports both centralized organizing and state-based campaign activity. Smaller 2025 grants also reached Mn350, 350 Colorado, and 350 Bay Area Action for voter mobilization.
How 350org Action Fund Gives
The typical grant size is mid-sized rather than token or extremely large: p25 is $8,250, median is $29,500, and p75 is $50,000. The recent record shows repeated awards to the same recipients across multiple years, including 350org, 350 Wisconsin Action, and 350 Nh Action, which suggests ongoing campaign support rather than isolated one-time grants. The funder does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments. The pattern is consistent with a foundation-style grantmaker supporting affiliated organizations through short-term, campaign-focused awards.
