Mars Wrigley Foundation

The Mars Wrigley Foundation funds makes grants for oral health education, the environment and global development in cocoa and mint growing regions around the world.

The Mars Wrigley Foundation is a well-known corporate funder that offers multi-year support for several large, global NGOs working in development and health. In the U.S., it gives to a much broad range of organizations, but these grants tend to be smaller. This funder likes to keep its cards close, not offering much information on grant strategies. Nor is it accessible funder, but if your organization works in oral health education or environmental education, it might be worthwhile to reach out with an introduction. It will be hard to get on this corporate funder’s radar unless you are a potential partner that can proof it can scale at least nationally, if not globally.
