About DOB Ecology

DOB Ecology is a non-profit foundation set-up in the Netherlands by an entrepreneurial family. Their philanthropy enables the foundation to support a range of nature conservation programmes. 

DOB Ecology provides grants to (non-profit) NGOs and CSOs and prioritizes organizations that focus on nature conservation and that have local legitimacy in the landscapes where they work. See Strategy for more details.

Please note: while we recognize there are many amazing organizations and initiatives out there, we do not work with open calls, nor do we consider unsolicited proposals.
