The Animal Grantmakers Conference is the only annual conference dedicated exclusively to animal protection philanthropy. Each year, it brings together foundation leaders, individual philanthropists, grantmaking professionals, and philanthropic advisors from across the United States, Canada, Europe, and beyond to exchange ideas, build relationships, and strengthen the collective impact of animal philanthropy.

The conference also features expert speakers from across the animal protection ecosystem, including advocates, academics, scientists, attorneys, and other thought-leaders whose work is helping shape the future of animal protection. Through presentations, panel discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities, attendees gain insights into emerging challenges, promising solutions, and opportunities for greater impact.

At a time when collaboration and strategic philanthropy are more important than ever, maintaining opportunities for in-person connection has become increasingly challenging. Like many non-profit organizations, Animal Grantmakers continues to navigate rising event costs while working to strengthen its long-term financial sustainability. Yet we remain committed to preserving the only annual gathering specifically designed for animal protection funders. Sponsorship support helps make that possible.

By sponsoring this year's conference, The Frontier of Animal Philanthropy, your organization will get the chance to connect with animal protection funders and other influential philanthropic decision-makers, demonstrate its commitment to advancing animal protection, and help ensure that the animal protection funding community has a dedicated space to learn, collaborate, and drive meaningful change for animals.

See the AGCon 2026 Sponsorship Prospectus to view sponsorship levels and benefits. You can also email communications@animalgrantmakers.org to discuss your options or to co-create a custom sponsorship package.

We would be honored to partner with your organization and grateful for your support.
