HOW TO APPLY

DOWNLOAD APPLICATION FORM
DOWNLOAD BUDGET FORM

We serve New Haven, East Haven, Hamden and Woodbridge residents by providing community grants for environmental initiatives that promote sustainability and a clean, healthy environment.  Grants are available for up to $10,000.


Grant applications are now closed but you can apply for Microgrants (up to $1000) and Sponsorships throughout the year. 

The following instructions are for regular grant applications (not the microgrants or sponsorhips).  However, you can view them to get an idea of the application process that we currently use.

Your organization:

Name, name of leadership, street address, email address, telephone number, mission/goals, website address - if available, number of paid staff (both full time and part time), number of volunteers, year the organization started, size of last year's budget as a range.  If your organization does not have a 501 c 3 designation by the Internal Revenue Service you will need to provide information about a fiduciary agent that will accept our grant money on your behalf as well as its address, leader, email and telephone contact information. The fiduciary agent must have a nonprofit designation (501 c 3) given by the Internal Revenue Service.
