Opportunity Information: Apply for EPA EE 18 04
The Environmental Education Local Grants Program for EPA Region 4 (Funding Opportunity Number EPA EE 18 04) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to fund community-based environmental education projects. The program is designed to support locally focused efforts that help people better understand environmental and conservation issues, build practical knowledge, and develop the skills needed to make informed choices and take responsible actions that benefit the environment. In other words, the emphasis is on education that is grounded in local needs and results in participants being better prepared to engage with real-world environmental challenges in their communities.
This opportunity falls under the grant funding instrument type and is categorized under environmental funding activities. It is associated with CFDA number 66.951, which corresponds to EPA environmental education funding. While the eligibility field is listed broadly as "Others," the notice indicates that applicants must review the solicitation's additional eligibility section for precise details and any limitations or clarifications. That typically means the program may allow applications from certain organizations or institutions beyond the most common government applicants, but the exact eligible applicant types are defined in the full solicitation language.
The solicitation was created on January 12, 2018, and had an original application closing date of March 15, 2018, with a note that Section IV of the solicitation may provide additional close date information or conditions. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $100,000 per award, and EPA anticipated making about four awards under this notice. Taken together, those figures suggest a small, competitive program intended to fund a limited number of strong local projects rather than a large volume of smaller awards.
Overall, the core goal of the program is public-facing environmental education with tangible learning outcomes. Competitive projects under this kind of program typically demonstrate clear educational objectives, identify specific audiences or communities to be served, connect environmental topics to local conditions or issues, and show how participants will gain the capability to make thoughtful decisions and take responsible environmental actions. The Region 4 framing indicates the awards are intended to benefit communities within EPA Region 4, aligning education activities with regional priorities and local environmental contexts.Apply for EPA EE 18 04
