The Save Our Seas Foundation (SOSF) invites applications for its Emergency Grants for projects or situations that require logistical, expertise and/or financial support outside the normal funding cycles can be allocated on special occasions when these require unique, urgent and immediate attention. The SOSF will only consider environmental and conservation emergencies. This might be, for example, where individuals of a rare species are under imminent threat, or critical conservation equipment requires repair.
SOSF is committed to supporting activities that have the capacity to make a real difference to the health of the oceans and to the survival of threatened aquatic species and habitats.
With a view to achieving this aim, the Foundation has developed a policy of supporting, in particular, applicants working on exceptional projects, on remarkable species or habitats and/or in unique locations.

Eligibility Criteria
