    This page was reviewed but not written by the grant investigator. L214 staff also reviewed this page prior to publication.

    The Open Philanthropy Project recommended a grant of €1,140,000 (approximately $1,347,742 at the time of conversion) over two years to Association L214 (L214) to support work on broiler chicken welfare in France. Using this funding, L214 will conduct a campaign advocating for reduced chicken meat consumption as well as a corporate campaign targeting higher welfare standards for broiler chickens. Additionally, it plans to establish a new campus outreach program for movement building purposes, and will apply some funding toward capacity building such as software, training, and fundraising expenses.

    Our Program Officer for Farm Animal Welfare, Lewis Bollard, is excited to support L214 due to its track record securing large wins to date, such as cage-free pledges from some of France’s largest retailers; his impression of its leadership team; and the organization’s strategic alignment with our goal to build a stronger farm animal welfare movement in Europe.

    This grant falls within our focus area of farm animal welfare.
