The Portland Water District offers mini-grants to support teacher’s
water quality education programs. Eligible teachers can apply for
a $100 grant to buy relevant water education materials.
Some examples:
 |
Videos, Maps, Books, and Posters |
 |
Water Related Curriculum Materials
|
 |
Materials and Testing Equipment for
an Outdoor Classroom |
 |
Plants for a Community Service Project
to Protect Water Quality |
 |
Bus Fees for Field Trips to Local
Water Resources and Water Related Events |
If more than one teacher in your school is interested in applying
for a grant, you may want to submit a collective proposal. We will
provide $100 per teacher in the "collective," (up to $500
per school). This allows you and your colleagues to purchase larger,
more expensive equipment that will be shared among several classrooms.
Access these funds by Completing the Water
Education Mini-Grant Application. Only one application
is required for collective proposals. Please contact our education
coordinator at 774.5961 Ext. 3324 if you have any questions regarding
the application process.
