THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: Food Access, Hunger, Agricultural Education, Water Access, Community, Environment
Deadline: Sept. 25, 2020
“We focus our investments in three core areas:
- Food – To feed a growing global population, food production will have to double by 2050. This is a daunting challenge considering that today one billion people go to bed hungry each night. We seek to address these issues by concentrating on the following funding areas:
- Hunger: food insecurity and food system development in local communities where we have facilities and offices
- Global Agricultural Development: addressing global food security through development programs focused on smallholder farmers in developing nations where we have key stakeholders
- Agricultural Education: research, education and extension programs primarily focused on soil health and balanced nutrition and increasing the capacity of farmers to grow more food sustainably
- Water – Water is the greatest limiting factor to growing more food. By 2030, it is estimated that the world will experience a 30 percent shortfall in freshwater supply at current consumption rates. We seek to address water conservation by concentrating on the following funding areas:
- Habitat Conservation: conserving resources and encouraging stewardship of the environment, including biodiversity and habitat protection where we have facilities and offices
- Nutrient Stewardship: nutrient stewardship and ecosystem management programs that promote sustainable agriculture and best management practices in watersheds where we have facilities, offices, and other key stakeholder relationships
- Watershed Restoration: preservation and restoration in regions where we have facilities and offices
- Local – Our local communities are our homes and we have a vested interest in their sustainability. We understand that for Mosaic to prosper, our communities must also. Mosaic strives to make investments that will protect and enhance the long term quality of life in our communities for ourselves, our families and our neighbors. We concentrate funding in the following areas:
- Philanthropic and Civic: partnerships that enrich the long term strength of communities in which Mosaic has offices and operations
- Operating Communities: Organizations in which our employees are donating their time, talent and expertise.”
