Tips for Applicants

Applicants should emphasise the scientific validity and translational potential of their alternative testing methods, clearly demonstrate how their work reduces or eliminates animal use, and highlight potential health benefits for people with disabilities and chronic illness. Given the trust's moderate annual giving of $100,000, proposals should be focused and clearly justify the need for funding.

Giving Philosophy

The trust values innovative approaches to medical research that eliminate or replace the need for animal testing. It selects recipients based on the scientific merit of alternative testing methods, their potential to improve health outcomes, and their alignment with cruelty-free research principles.
