Bold Climate Action Deserves Bold Philanthropy
We aim to make an outsized impact on resolving the climate crisis through our global philanthropy. This mission may not be unique; it’s how we do it that sets us apart. Launched in 2016, our prestigious Climate Breakthrough Award program offers social change leaders with bold ambitions a rare opportunity to expand their thinking and build transformative new initiatives with breakthrough potential to address the climate crisis, while embracing the possibility of failure. Let’s bet big, let’s break through.
2024 Climate Breakthrough Awardees

Over the next three years, they will develop, launch, and scale their boldest new initiatives with breakthrough potential to address climate change. This means initiatives that aim to significantly reduce global annual greenhouse gas emissions, affect entire industries or regions of the world, and materially change the lives of tens of millions of people within ten years of launch. Dive into their their remarkable leadership journeys and the ambitious efforts they are pursuing with our support, including a $4 million funding package—the largest climate funding for individuals.
