Past Grant Projects
and Our 2023 Funded Farms
Since 2012 FACT has awarded 608 grants to farmers totaling over $1,110,000 to improve farm animal welfare, expand humane farming, and support capital and operational work done on dozens of farms. In 2023 alone we distributed over $250,000 to 87 farms. Our 2023 grants to farmers seeking or holding animal welfare certification were generously underwritten by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA).
Many past grant projects have focused on fencing, watering systems, or mobile animal shelters. Farmers have also completed a variety of unique projects involving constructing cattle scratching stations, planting trees to improve access to shade, and purchasing equipment for fly control. Please view a complete list of past projects for reference.
