Environmental Education Funding Resources
EPA's Environmental Education Grants
The Grants Program sponsored by EPA's Office of Environmental Education (OEE), Office of External Affairs and Environmental Education, supports environmental education projects that enhance the public's awareness, knowledge, and skills to help people make informed decisions that affect environmental quality. EPA awards grants each year based on funding appropriated by Congress. Annual funding for the program ranges between $2 and $3 million.
2011 Environmental Education Grants
We are currently working on the Requests for Proposals for the 2011 Environmental Education Grant Program. More information.
EPA's Environmental Justice Small Grants
http://www.epa.gov/compliance/environmentaljustice/grants/ej-smgrants.html
Since its inception in 1994, the Environmental Justice Small Grants Program has awarded more than $21 million in funding to 1,200 community-based organizations, and local and tribal organizations working with communities facing environmental justice issues.
The Environmental Justice Small Grants Program, supports and empowers communities working on solutions to local environmental and public health issues. The program assists recipients in building collaborative partnerships to help them understand and address environmental and public health issues in their communities. Successful collaborative partnerships involve not only well-designed strategic plans to build, maintain and sustain the partnerships, but also to work towards addressing the local environmental and public health issues.
OCF's Environmental Education Program
The Environmental Education Program seeks to encourage a strong local land ethic, sustainable communities and stewardship of the natural environment by citizens throughout Oregon.
The Fund is committed long term to institutionalizing a series of age appropriate experiences that build a sense of place and responsibility toward Oregon and the region. More Information.
