About Woodtiger Fund
The Woodtiger Fund concentrates its philanthropy on environmental conservation with a mix of local, watershed-focused civic support and international species protection. Its largest commitments fund municipal conservation-compatible infrastructure and long-term advocacy for the Delaware River watershed, while also underwriting targeted primate conservation projects in Africa. The foundation gives very large, infrequent grants to a small set of recipients rather than many small awards.

About Woodtiger Fund
The Woodtiger Fund repeatedly backs conservation work that is both place-based and species-specific: a $2.54 million grant to Tinicum Township for bridge consultant services stands out alongside recurring support for the Delaware Riverkeeper Network and overseas wildlife projects. The foundation’s recent giving shows a preference for large awards to a limited set of recipients, with grants that can support local conservation-compatible infrastructure, watershed advocacy, and targeted species protection in Africa. In the environmental portfolio, the fund has supported the Delaware Riverkeeper Network across multiple years, including general support grants of $500,000 in 2024 and $350,000 in 2025. It has also funded Wild Earth Allies for the Grauer’s gorilla project and blue monkey project, and Wildlife Guardians for the Niassa lion project and land purchase. Other grants point to a broader wildlife-conservation pattern that includes pangolins, elephants, wolves, rhinos, and vaquitas. The result is a grantmaking profile that combines civic infrastructure, advocacy, and field conservation rather than a single-issue or single-region strategy.
What Woodtiger Fund Funds
The Woodtiger Fund’s environmental support cuts across watershed advocacy, municipal conservation planning, and wildlife protection. In river-focused work, the fund gave $500,000 to Delaware Riverkeeper Network for general support in 2024 and $350,000 in 2025, indicating sustained backing for Delaware River watershed advocacy. It also supports local land-use and infrastructure work: Tinicum Township received $2.54 million in 2025 for bridge consultant services. On the wildlife side, Wild Earth Allies received $339,000 in 2024 for the Grauer’s gorilla project and blue monkey project, while Wildlife Guardians received $306,000 in 2024 for the Niassa lion project and land purchase. The portfolio extends into species campaigns through grants such as $125,000 to Endangered Species Coalition for the Stand for Wolves campaign.
How Woodtiger Fund Gives
Typical grants cluster around a mid-five-figure to low-six-figure range, with p25 at $15,000, median at $40,000, and p75 at $75,000. The Woodtiger Fund does make larger awards, but the distribution shows that many grants sit below $100,000 while a smaller number reach the hundreds of thousands or higher. Recipients appear across multiple years, including Delaware Riverkeeper Network, Wildlife Guardians, Wild Earth Allies, Save the Rhino International, Endangered Species Coalition, and Wildlife Conservation Society. The foundation also funds individuals, and its recent grant list shows a mix of operating support, project support, and named program support rather than one uniform grant type.
