About EA AWF

The AWF's mission is to alleviate the suffering of non-human animals globally through effective grantmaking.

Our grants portfolio prioritizes interventions that can collectively have the highest impact and help the greatest number of animals. Thus, we support projects focused on:

• Reducing suffering and improving the lives of animals in factory farms
• Bringing factory farming to an end
• Positively affecting other groups of animals on a large scale
• Supporting these goals by researching and piloting novel approaches and interventions

Since its founding in 2017, AWF has emerged as a major funder in effective animal advocacy (EAA), distributing $23.3M across 347 grants and contributing to building a more robust and diverse funding ecosystem. 2024 brought many positive changes and improvements to the fund, and we have ambitious plans for the future. You can read our 2024 review here.

Why join us?

• Joining the AWF as a fund manager offers a high-impact opportunity to alleviate animal suffering on a global scale. AWF is dedicated to transforming animal welfare by deploying funds strategically to the most promising and effective interventions across a range of neglected and emerging areas, such as factory farming and invertebrate and wild animal welfare.
• As a fund manager, you would be directly involved in identifying and evaluating grant opportunities and deciding how millions of dollars should be spent to advance AWF’s mission to maximize positive impact.
• This role includes an intellectually stimulating process of assessing projects for the strength of their theory of change, scale of counterfactual impact, cost-effectiveness, and more.
