Opportunity Information: Apply for NOAA NMFS HCPO 2024 2008219
The Fiscal Year 2024 Chesapeake B-WET Program – School District Programming provides funding for hands-on environmental education through Meaningful Watershed Educational Experiences (MWEEs) for K-12 students in the Chesapeake Bay watershed region. These experiences combine classroom learning with outdoor field activities, helping students explore environmental issues, draw conclusions, and take action to protect local watersheds.
This grant supports projects that increase environmental literacy and stewardship, contributing to the goals of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Agreement and NOAA’s Education Strategic Plan. Funding is available under two priorities: (1) Implementing MWEEs in school districts and (2) Building school district capacity for environmental literacy.
Eligible applicants include public and independent K-12 schools and school districts, higher education institutions, nonprofit and community-based organizations, government agencies (state, local, and tribal), and interstate agencies. For-profit entities, foreign organizations, and federal agencies cannot apply but may partner with eligible applicants. Only school districts with at least 25% of their land in the Chesapeake Bay watershed qualify.
NOAA encourages proposals that include Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) and organizations working with underserved communities. A separate funding opportunity for Statewide K-12 Environmental Literacy Capacity Building is also available.Apply for NOAA NMFS HCPO 2024 2008219
