Funding for Environmental Education and Stewardship Projects
The WHALE TAIL® grants program is accepting applications to support projects encouraging people to value and take action to improve the health of California’s coast, marine life, or watersheds that connect with the California coast. Educational projects improving the quality of beaches or coastal or marine habitats are also eligible. There is also a special subcategory for projects addressing climate change and/or ocean acidification. Emphasis is on reaching underserved students or members of the public.
Applications mailed to the California Coastal Commission must be postmarked by November 1, 2016. Nonprofits, schools, and government agencies may apply. Applicants may request up to $50,000, and 25-50% of the funding will be allocated in small grants up to $12,000. Click here to access the full application packet.
