    Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $57,000 to the Korean Animal Welfare Association (KAWA) to promote the transition to cage-free layer hen farming in Korea. KAWA intends to use this funding to conduct research in preparation for cage-free corporate campaigns and government outreach. Approximately 57 million layer hens are alive in Korea at any given time.

    This falls within our focus area of farm animal welfare.
