Opportunity Information: Apply for EPA EE 25 01

The Environmental Education Grant Program (Funding Opportunity Number: EPA EE 25 01) is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to support locally and regionally focused environmental education efforts. The program is designed to strengthen environmental stewardship by helping communities build a stronger base of knowledge and responsibility among students, educators, and the general public. In practice, the EPA is looking to fund projects that make environmental learning more relevant to local conditions and that translate education into informed decision-making and responsible action.

This opportunity funds projects that design, demonstrate, and/or disseminate environmental education practices, methods, or techniques. In other words, applicants can propose new or improved approaches to environmental education, pilot them in real-world settings, and share what works so others can adopt or replicate the model. The core purpose is to increase public awareness and understanding of local environmental issues while also giving participants practical skills they can use to evaluate information, weigh tradeoffs, and take steps that benefit environmental quality in their communities.

The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $250,000, and the EPA expects to make approximately 16 awards under this competition. The application deadline listed is March 3, 2026. The program is categorized under the funding activity area of Environment and is associated with CFDA number 66.951. The funding instrument type is a grant.

Eligibility is noted broadly as "Others," with the specific eligibility requirements referenced in Section 2 of the Notice of Funding Opportunity.
