About Global Kratom Coalition Inc Fka Kratom Coalition
GLOBAL KRATOM COALITION INC FKA Kratom Coalition Inc centers its grantmaking on kratom research, safety standards, and science-based policy. The largest recent award in the record is a $575,000 grant to University of Florida Foundation for University of Florida research assistance, showing a strong emphasis on academic support rather than small, scattered awards. The foundation also backed a kratom symposium at the University of Florida College of Pharmacy in both 2024 and 2025, suggesting interest in convening researchers and practitioners around botanical safety and efficacy questions. Another recent grant went to American Herbal Pharmacopeia for research on the safety and efficacy of botanical medicines, which fits the group’s focus on regulatory science and public health implications of supplement use. Across the available grants, the foundation’s work points to a narrow but consistent set of priorities: evidence generation, safety communication, and policy engagement around kratom and related botanical products.

The foundation is a grantmaking nonprofit, not a funder of individuals, and it does not make program-related investments. No application process is indicated in the provided data.
