Opportunity Information: Apply for EPA EE 18 07
The Environmental Education Local Grants Program for Region 7 (Solicitation Notice for 2018) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to fund community-based environmental education projects. The overall goal is to strengthen locally focused education efforts that help people better understand environmental and conservation issues, build practical skills, and encourage responsible choices and actions that benefit the environment. Projects supported under this program are expected to go beyond general awareness by helping participants develop the ability to make informed decisions and apply what they learn in real-world situations.
This opportunity is identified as EPA EE 18 07 under the funding title "Environmental Education Local Grants Program for Region 7 -- Solicitation Notice for 2018." It falls under the environmental funding activity category and is listed under CFDA number 66.951. The EPA is the sponsoring agency, and the funding instrument type is a grant, meaning selected applicants receive financial support to carry out an approved project within the terms and conditions of the award.
Funding levels are relatively modest and designed to support multiple local efforts rather than a single large initiative. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $100,000, and EPA anticipated making about 4 awards under this solicitation. The opportunity was created on January 9, 2018, with an original application closing date of March 15, 2018. Applicants were directed to consult Section IV of the official announcement for detailed submission instructions, which typically covers how to apply, required forms and attachments, formatting, and any special delivery or registration requirements.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with the note that applicants needed to review the "Additional Information on Eligibility" section of the full announcement for clarification. In practice, that kind of eligibility label usually signals that more than one type of organization may apply, but that there are specific rules or limitations (for example, which nonprofits, educational institutions, local governments, tribal entities, or other community organizations may qualify, and whether individuals are excluded). Anyone considering a similar EPA environmental education grant would generally need to verify they fit the eligible applicant categories described in the full solicitation and ensure their proposed project aligns with EPA environmental education priorities and program requirements.
In plain terms, this Region 7 program is meant to fund on-the-ground education work that helps communities understand environmental challenges and conservation needs, while also equipping learners with the skills to act responsibly. Strong applications for opportunities like this typically present a clear local need, a well-defined audience, measurable educational outcomes, and a realistic plan for delivering environmental education that results in increased knowledge, improved decision-making, and tangible participant engagement with environmental stewardship.Apply for EPA EE 18 07
