Grant Requests

As a young man, Tommy Raskin used his boundless creativity and compassion to reduce the pain and suffering of both people and animals. Guided by his sparkling spirit, we give to both global and local institutions that are striving to mitigate pain and suffering in extreme situations and meet human and animal needs wherever they arise. We provide standard grants and emergency grants. This structure allows us to support the incredible work done for local and global communities on a daily basis as well as respond to crises caused by conflict and climate catastrophes. With each grant, we are guided by Tommy's life and seek to create a world that takes care of all of its inhabitants.

We welcome grant requests from organizations whose work and values align with the work and values of Tommy. Most of our grants fall within the range of $1,000-$10,000.

We issue grant decisions on a quarterly basis and the deadlines for each cycle are listed below. Typically emergency grants still follow the below cycle, but exceptions can be made depending on need.
