WHALE TAIL® Grant 2024
Details
Purpose:
WHALE TAIL® Grants help people connect to the California coast and its watersheds through experiential education, stewardship, and outdoor experiences. WHALE TAIL® Grants focus on reaching communities that have historically received fewer marine education and stewardship opportunities, and can engage youth or adults anywhere in California.
Description:
The California Coastal Commission's WHALE TAIL® Grants fund projects that connect youth and adults to the California Coast and its watersheds through education, stewardship, and outdoor experiences. Eligible projects fall into one or more of the following four categories: 1) youth education programs, 2) programs for educating the general public or adults, 3) climate change education and stewardship, 4) shoreline cleanup and enhancement programs. We strongly encourage projects that engage communities that have historically received fewer opportunities for coastal and marine education and stewardship, and applicant organizations based in and composed of the communities they are engaging. Grants can take place anywhere in California, coastal or inland. Interested parties complete and submit a full application by the deadline. Grants up to $50,000 may be awarded, with at least 25% of grants awarded for $20,000 or less. Proposals are due November 4, 2024.
