The Foundation for Pennsylvania Watersheds (FPW)’s fall request for grants is open on the FPW grant portal, www.thefpw.org. Letters of Intent are due by Sept. 6. If the LOI is accepted, full proposals are due October 18th, 2024. More than $500,000 is available for projects that advance the protection and restoration of Pennsylvania’s waterways.
The FPW invests in local efforts in Pennsylvania that protect healthy streams, clean up pollution and restore degraded wildlife habitat. Twice a year, the foundation distributes grants that leverage local, state and federal funds to protect the best of the best and restore the worst of the worst water problems.
“It’s exciting to see the wide range of local conservation projects the FPW is able to fund,” said Deborah Nardone, FPW executive director. “Applications for projects that improve or protect water quality in Pennsylvania will be accepted through September 6th.”
The FPW provides matching grant funds to both small and large groups and organizations throughout much of the Commonwealth. Through FPW’s grantmaking, assistance is provided to conservation organizations to achieve their restoration goals, while ensuring enough clean water for future generations of Pennsylvania children, families and wildlife.
