Grants
One of the four key pillars of the mission of the Foundation for the Conservation of Salamanders is to fund salamander conservation, education, and research initiatives through annual grants. We are the only foundation solely dedicated to conserving all salamanders and our team works tirelessly throughout the year to ensure that funding is available to support the impressive work of herpetologists around the world. FCsal has funded $71,000 in research projects since 2013.
Our call for proposals is announced annually in November and posted on our website and social media pages and shared by our partners.
Take a look through the impressive work of some of our past grantees for ideas about what activities we support.
Every year, FCSal receives far more grant applications than we are able to support. The more money we are able to raise, the more grants we can award. Please consider donating or purchasing FCSal merchandise to help support our grant program.
