If you have an idea that will strengthen environmental well being, a grant program offered by Columbia Basin Trust can help bring ideas into fruition.

Who can apply? 

Eligible applicants include registered non-profits, public organizations, municipalities, regional districts and Indigenous organizations. Businesses may be considered depending on the project and its broad community impact. The project must not mainly benefit the interest of the business. Your project must take place in the Columbia Basin Trust region.

There are different types of grants available; over $5,000 and less than $5,000. Please view the website to learn about the different stipulations for each type of grant.

How Can I Learn More About the Program?

The Trust will be hosting two information meetings to review the Environment Grants Program and answer questions about the application and selection processes. Potential applicants are strongly encouraged to attend an information meeting.

Information meetings will be hosted by teleconference and the same content will be covered at both information meetings. If you are unable to attend an information meeting via teleconference, please reach out directly to Trust staff to discuss your application at 1.800.505.8998 or email envirogrants@ourtrust.org.
