About environmental education grants

Environmental education grants fund programs that build environmental awareness, stewardship, and skills, from classroom curricula to community and outdoor learning. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) runs a long-standing Environmental Education Grants Program, and organizations like the North American Association for Environmental Education (NAAEE) help connect funders and practitioners. Eligible applicants typically include schools, colleges, nonprofits, tribal organizations, and educational agencies.

Frequently Asked Questions

What grants are available for environmental education?

Funding supports designing, demonstrating, and disseminating environmental education practices, including curricula, teacher training, community projects, and career development. The EPA's Environmental Education Grants Program is a core federal source, and various foundations and state agencies fund similar work. Programs often ask projects to address specific educational priorities such as community engagement or capacity building.

Does the EPA fund environmental education?

Yes. The EPA's Environmental Education Grants Program has supported projects since 1992 that promote environmental awareness and give people the skills to take responsible action. Eligible applicants include local education agencies, colleges and universities, state agencies, 501(c)(3) nonprofits, tribal organizations, and noncommercial educational broadcasters.

Who else funds environmental education programs?

In addition to the EPA, state environmental and education agencies often run their own environmental education grants, and private and community foundations fund outdoor and place-based learning. Membership organizations like NAAEE maintain funding resources for the field. Schools and nonprofits frequently combine several smaller grants to sustain ongoing programming.
