The Water Resources Education Network of the League of Women Voters is now accepting applications for source water and watershed protection grants of up to $5,000 per project through April 3.

Partnerships of local or regional organizations in Pennsylvania such as watershed associations, civic groups, community water systems, governmental entities (including municipal authorities), and other public interest organizations are eligible.

Educational projects that raise awareness about protecting the community’s drinking water source and/or preventing nonpoint source pollution in the watershed that provides local government involvement and encourage behavior change may be funded.

For more information, visit the WREN Grant webpage or send email to wren@pa.lwv.org or call 800 692-7281 ext 10.
