Is your organization struggling with the effect of COVID and not being able to run your regular programming? Would a small grant help you offer some of your expertise in an online delivery format?

Do you have a professional development opportunity that will increase your experience and capacity as an outdoor and environmental educator?

Do you have an idea that will help educators teach outdoors and about their local environment?

Do you have a small research project related to outdoor and environmental education?
