THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: Environmental Education, K-12, Civic Engagement, Community
Deadline: Dec. 2, 2019
“The Gray Family Foundation’s Environmental Education program seeks to support programs that stimulate or promote the teaching of environmental education in K-12 environments and increases outdoor experiences for youth.
Through our investments in environmental education in Oregon, Gray FF seeks to support:
- Active youth stewardship of our natural and built environments;
- Systematic integration of environmental education in formal and informal K-12 education systems;
- High quality environmental education programming by schools, districts, and non-profits with and for their communities;
- Environmental education opportunities that include and reflect the experiences, perspectives, and knowledge of diverse populations across Oregon.
In 2020, we are offering three options through our Environmental Education grant program.
- Capacity Building – We will consider capacity-building grant requests from $5,000-$20,000 focused on advancing equity in environmental education. This includes capacity-building support for culturally-specific organizations seeking to integrate best practices in environmental education into their youth programming AND/OR organizations seeking to build their capacity to effectively engage with and support communities where they are implementing programming. Eligible organizations should have or be planning for programming that engages 3rd-8th grade youth. Planning grants are one-year grants with the opportunity to apply for programmatic grants in future years.
- Youth Field Experiences – We will consider programmatic grant requests from $5,000-$25,000 per year to support field experiences for 3rd through 8th grade youth. Program applicants may request multi-year funding (up to three years) pending annual grant renewals through the 2022-2023 school year.
- Educator Training and Professional Development – We will consider programmatic grant requests from $5,000-$25,000 per year to support educator professional development. Program applicants may request multi-year funding (up to three years) pending annual grant renewals through the 2022-2023 school year.”
