Grants awarded by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences reflect fundamental goals of the Academy – to advance the art and science of motion pictures and to foster cooperation among the creative leaders of the motion picture industry for cultural, educational and technical progress.

The Academy Foundation annually disburses grants for the support of a variety of film-oriented projects through three distinct programs. The Institutional Grants Program directs funds to organizations and educational institutions providing service or information relating to motion pictures. The Festival Grants Program directs funds to film festivals based in the United States that have been in existence for at least five years. The Academy Film Scholars Program stimulates and supports the creation of innovative and significant works of film scholarship by individuals established in the field.

Through these three programs, the Academy has distributed over $8,000,000 in grants to film and media arts centers; schools, colleges and universities; film festivals; and film scholars over the past 40 years.
