Virginia Environmental Endowment Offers Virginia Mini-Grant Program

A grantmaking program of the Virginia Environmental Endowment, the Virginia Mini-Grant Program supports community-based efforts to strengthen environmental education and to promote stewardship of Virginia's waterways. The grants awarded through the program are intended to be one-time start-up grants, with preference given to modest local projects.

Public and private schools (K-12) and nongovernmental, nonprofit community organizations in Virginia are eligible to apply. Local, state, and federal government agencies and programs are not eligible.

Mini-Grant awards range from a minimum of $1,000 to a maximum of $5,000 for projects up to one year in duration. Matching funds from other sources are usually required. Although cash matches are preferred, in-kind and volunteer services will be considered when detailed in the grant proposal and budget.

See the Virginia Environmental Endowment Web site for program guidelines and application procedures.
