About this opportunity
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Gulf of Mexico Division is offering approximately $3 million in funding for five cooperative agreements or grants, one in each of the five Gulf states (Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida). The goal of this Trash Free Waters Art and Slogan Competition is to advance protection and restoration of the Gulf of Mexico by investigating how environmental messages impact public behaviors or actions through demonstrated litter prevention and reduction assessments. Successful recipients will create and manage a state-wide high school art/slogan competition focused on reducing plastic/trash in freshwater and/or marine systems. Key evaluation criteria include project design, environmental results, milestone schedule, outreach and communication, and partnerships. The application deadline is November 22, 2024.
The maximum award amount is $600,000 per project, with an anticipated project period of up to three years. Eligible applicants include governmental entities, state agencies, Indian tribes, local governments, institutions of higher learning, and nonprofit organizations. All project activities must take place within the Gulf of Mexico watershed in one of the five eligible Gulf states.
