NOAH Foundation is a Berlin-based funder that backs mission-driven work at the intersection of social entrepreneurship, constructive journalism, and ocean restoration. Its giving appears to be organized through a few named programs and trust foundations, with support for projects that advance the SDGs, build solution-oriented media, and protect or restore marine ecosystems. The presence of ocean advocates and media-focused initiatives suggests a preference for practical, impact-oriented efforts rather than broad institutional funding.
Small-to-midsize grants in the roughly $5,000-$15,000 range, offered through specific programs rather than an open general grantmaking process. Support is year-round/rolling for scholarships and initiatives, with a likely mix of trust-fund style program support and targeted project funding.
Apply through the relevant program rather than a general request: NOAH Foundation Scholarships use rolling intake, and the trust-fund programs are aligned to specific themes. Proposals should clearly show SDG impact, a concrete social-entrepreneurship or journalism innovation angle, or measurable ocean restoration/protection outcomes, and should be framed for Germany, German-speaking countries, or global reach as appropriate.
