Kickstarting For Good’s 2025 Cohort Secures $1.5M in Six Months, Lifting Cumulative Total Past $10M
Vegconomist • May 18, 2026
Kickstarting For Good’s 2025 cohort of vegan movement-building initiatives raised over $1.5 million within six months of completing the programme, marking an 85% increase from the previous year's graduates. This brings the total funding raised by all K4G initiatives since 2022 to over $10 million. Notable graduates from the 2025 cohort include organisations such as Who Let The Docs Out, Vegan Hospitality, and Lawyers for Animals, all raising significant funds and making an impact in the vegan movement.

While fundraising is an important metric, K4G emphasizes that it is not the sole measure of success. The programme evaluates success based on the longer-term impact of alumni and places importance on stopping poorly conceived projects. K4G works with founders to pivot or discontinue initiatives that are unlikely to succeed, believing that freeing capable founders to pursue more viable work is more beneficial for the movement than allowing weak ideas to continue.
