Grants and Funding
A Little Help Goes a Long Way
As a non-profit NGO, Kanahau and its researchers owe great thanks to various funding bodies for their financial support. We do not have fancy facilities, marketing offices, or high-paid staff salaries, instead our non-profit business model injects funding straight back into conservation research activities. Without successful grant applications and interns, our biodiversity research and study of threatened species on Utila would cease to be possible. External funding is often sought to conduct species specific projects, with finances dedicated to covering logistical and costs of active species research, population monitoring and conservation action. External funding is also essential to run and maintain our facility, provide alternative incomes to our local staff, generate community initiatives/workshops and purchase new equipment which can improve our efficiency and output!
A growing legacy
Over the years, our efforts on Utila have earned us the reputation of being the most scientifically active and research-orientated conservation NGO on the island, and we seek to maintain this by continuing to fund, develop, communicate and publish the results of new studies. Kanahau couldn’t have reached these milestones without an incredible team of volunteers, students and staff. We are honored to support researchers in the pursuit of biological knowledge, and could not be happier to pursue what it is we love and consider to be our mission in life - to better understand, appreciate and protect our natural world.
