About League of Conservation Voters Education Fund
A 2025 grant of $43,000,000 to League of Conservation Voters marks the scale of League of Conservation Voters Education Fund’s work: the funder uses large institutional grants to support environmental education, capacity building, and non-partisan engagement. Across recent awards, the same pattern appears in grants to Voter Registration Project, North Carolina League of Conservation Voters Foundation, and several state-based conservation voter organizations, showing an emphasis on strengthening organizations that can carry public education and civic participation work over time. The foundation’s grantmaking connects climate crisis work with environmental injustice and democracy-focused engagement. Its named programs point to state affiliates, fellows drawn from affiliates and allied community organizations, and a national network of more than 30 state Conservation Voter Movement affiliates. Recent grants also show support for organizations in Florida, Pennsylvania, California, Illinois, and New Jersey, alongside the core network, suggesting a blend of central support and state-level partnership. The recurring language in the grant records centers on environmental education, engagement, and capacity building rather than project-specific conservation expenditures alone.

The funder awarded $3,000,000 to Voter Registration Project in 2025 and $1,000,000 to the same grantee in 2024 for environmental education, engagement, and/or capacity building. State affiliate infrastructure is another clear focus.

The grant records also include support for broader environmental advocacy organizations such as Ohio Environmental Council and Maine Conservation Alliance, each tied to public education and capacity building.
