SANUSPLANET Stiftung is a Switzerland-based platform foundation that pools public donations and redistributes them to vetted nonprofit projects worldwide, with a strong emphasis on oceans, nature, animals, and people in need. Its giving is unusual in that projects can gain support through the SANUSAPP via monthly voting, and it also offers a sponsorship program that can fund a broad range of nonprofit associations, including community, sports, and volunteer groups. The grantees suggest a practical, mission-driven interest in conservation, marine debris removal, plant-based advocacy, and child/youth support.
Platform-based and participatory giving: nonprofits register in the SANUSAPP, and selected projects receive funds from the Foundation Pool through monthly voting; there is also a sponsorship pathway for eligible associations. Support appears to be open worldwide and likely consists of recurring smaller-to-moderate grants rather than large formal awards.
