Corporate Impact Fund Grants

Mars, Incorporated committed more than $13 million in Mars Impact Fund Grants across six partnerships spanning Côte d'Ivoire, India, the United States and Thailand, targeting sourcing community resilience, youth science education and companion animal welfare. In Côte d'Ivoire, a partnership with Elucid will help up to 12,750 cocoa-farming households access affordable healthcare, while a Tanager partnership in India will help 20,000 mint-farming families diversify their income.

The fund also directed $3 million to the National 4-H Council to engage up to 200,000 young people in food, agriculture and veterinary science career paths, and $3 million to Worldwide Veterinary Service to support rabies elimination efforts among Thailand's hard-to-reach dog populations.

Mars' multi-year grant structure signals how corporate impact funds are shifting toward sustained partnerships.
