grantee lives beyond
the project.
“You know ... it’s
more of a lifelong

OUR MISSION
Our mission in grantmaking is to inspire people to care
about the planet. National Geographic encourages stewardship of the planet through research, exploration, conservation
and education.
Founded in 1888, the National Geographic Society, as one of
the world’s largest nonprofit scientific and educational
organizations, has funded over 11,000 scientific research,
conservation and exploration projects around the globe.
Throughout its 126-year history, it has encouraged
conservation of natural resources and raised public
awareness of the importance of natural places, the species
that inhabit them and the environmental
problems that
James Day, Grantee
threaten them.

Dear National Geographic Explorers,
Reviewers and Supporters:
We are delighted to share some of the great work National Geographic has been able to support in 2014. Under the leadership
of our new president and CEO, Gary Knell, we are ever more
invested in the power of science, exploration and storytelling to change the world. This year, 474 grants brought us
well over the 11,000-grant mark, and each project can benefit
from an ever-expanding communications enterprise that now
reaches an estimated 600 million people worldwide every
month. If you haven’t yet visited our Washington, D.C. , headquarters or
our deepening website, we hope you will. Here in our offices, it is
always “explorer central.” Just last week, we were able to convene
with Conservation Trust grantee Karen De Matteo about her use
of scat-sniffing dogs to identify new corridors for cat species in
Argentina, we heard from Emerging Explorer Patrick Meier on
the use of big data in managing disaster response, and Young
Explorer Cara Eckholm shared her coverage of the rebuilding
of Sarajevo. We are especially grateful for the support of our donors,
partners, and most importantly, our dedicated reviewers who
ensure that the projects and people we support are truly world
class. Thank you for the work that you do every day to improve
our understanding of the planet and to enlighten our audiences
on the vital role we play as global citizens.
We wish each of you a great 2015 with hopes for even greater
success in the world of exploration! This slope is guano from the wrinkle-lipped bat. Donald McFarlane
