The Greater Good Science Center will award grants of $5,000 to $50,000 to two dozen journalists and media producers to produce nonfiction stories that approach the topic of love from a variety of angles and across a range of media, including articles, videos, radio stories, podcasts, social media content, and more. The initiative is especially interested in supporting podcasts and social media creators.

The grants are part of the GGSC’s “Spreading Love Through the Media” project, with funding from the John Templeton Foundation.

Grant recipients will be notified in June 2025 an have 18 months to complete their project. In addition to financial support, the program will connect the grantees with scientific experts who will serve as advisors to their projects , guiding them to relevant research and helping them align their work with the science of love.
