    Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $3,600,000 over two years to The Humane League to continue to support program grants and associated costs for the Open Wing Alliance. This funding will support members of the Open Wing Alliance who are working to secure corporate cage-free and broiler pledges and build an effective farm animal welfare movement in more nations. Our farm animal welfare team believes that the Open Wing Alliance has a strong track record in identifying promising groups in new countries, training them in corporate campaigning, and coordinating them to achieve global corporate wins.

    This follows our March 2019 support and falls within our focus area of farm animal welfare.
