Empower Youth Voices for Farm Animals: $50K in Grants Available!

Farm Sanctuary is proud to partner with the Youth Pro-Animal Awards to uplift young changemakers (ages 13–19) who care deeply about farm animals and want to use the power of social media to spark change.

Through the end of August, Youth Pro-Animal Awards will award nonprofit grants to support youth-led digital advocacy. A total of five winning creators will receive $200 content grants, and every participant will be considered for one grand prize of $1,000 and mentorship opportunities. It’s a chance to be recognized, rewarded, and supported in making a real difference.

Here’s how to participate:

  • Post a video to Instagram or TikTok that advocates for farm animals—whether it’s sharing your story, educating followers, or rallying support for farm animal protection.
  • Follow and tag @proanimalawards
  • Use the hashtag #ProAnimalAwards

Winners will be announced via the Youth Pro-Animal Awards social media!

Farm Sanctuary believes that youth voices are essential to creating a more compassionate food system. Whether it’s through storytelling, education, or activism, we’re excited to see how the next generation speaks up for farm animals.
