Supporting community-based stewardship of landscapes and seascapes in diverse regions.

Welcome to the New England Biolabs Foundation!

We are a private foundation whose mission is to foster community-based conservation of landscapes and seascapes and the biocultural diversity found in these places. We support grassroots organizations and other NGOs in selected countries of Central America, Andean South America, and West Africa. In addition, in support of our local roots, we also provide grants for community-based conservation and cultural projects in coastal communities on the North Shore of Massachusetts.

Our maximum international grant size is now $12,000, with recent grants typically ranging from $3,000 to $9,000.

Local grants now range from $2,500 to $8,000.
