Getty Images proudly support photographers who use imagery to promote positive change in our world. To that end, they've launched thier Grants for Good.
Nonprofit agencies need imagery to tell their stories – which is why our Grants for Good provides two annual grants of $15,000 to cover photographers’ costs as they create compelling new imagery for the nonprofit of their choice.
Grant recipients may use the entire award to offset shoot expenses, or choose to donate all or part of it directly to their charity and contribute their own time and resources. The winning photographers will have the option to work with the Getty team of art directors, photo editors and producers for project support. The photographer and the nonprofit, as well as any creative agency involved, will be showcased to the media and featured on our community involvement page.
