At The Leakey Foundation, we believe that science matters and science is for everyone. We also know that understanding our past is a key to a better future.
Since our founding in 1968, people like you have made possible extraordinary discoveries about our human origins.
Now, as the scientific community faces unprecedented challenges, your support is more important than ever. While we cannot replace federal funding, we can still make a difference together.
We will continue to fund vital research, create opportunities for aspiring scientists, protect endangered primates, and share accurate scientific information. As a people-powered, independent nonprofit, we sustain science thanks to you.
We’re standing up for science and we’re grateful to have you standing with us.
