The PA Organization for Watersheds and Rivers is now accepting applications for 2023 PA River Sojourn Grants.  The deadline for applications is March 31.

Grants are available on a competitive basis for single and multi-day paddling events on Pennsylvania Rivers.

Sojourns must incorporate significant educational programming, and be open to all participants (i.e., private trips are not eligible). Applicants can request up to $1,000 per day for multi-day sojourns and $500 for a single-day sojourn.

The PA Sojourn Program is a nationally unique program that awards more than $30,000 in grants across the state to support local organizations and their sojourn events.

These grants support on average between 10 and 15 paddling events each year, encompassing over 400 river miles and 50+ on-the-water days, offering more than 100 educational programs, and engaging over 4,000 people.
