2026 Train The World Grant Application

2026 Train the World Grant Application

Train The World exists to elevate every shooter—at every level—by providing accessible opportunities to train, improve, and grow. Starting in local communities and extending worldwide, we unite shooters with the tools, knowledge, and motivation to make measurable progress. Our mission is to empower individuals to become more confident, capable, and connected through consistent training that reaches across borders and builds a stronger global shooting community. September 2026 is Global Training Month, and Mantis wants to encourage local organizations to participate. The 2026 Train the World Grants will provide a total of $100,000 to local organizations through a combination or cash, products, and volunteer mentors in support of this mission. Organizations must agree to the terms, complete and submit this grant application by 5/31/2026 to be considered for a Train The World grant.
