Small Grant Program

Promoting public awareness and education of North Dakota's natural resources.
The Trust is seeking grant proposals to assist in the implementation of our mission, and the education elements identified in our 2023-2027 Strategic Plan, to support “projects which produce educational aspects around the value of prairie landscapes, healthy soils, and grass-based regenerative practices.”
Small grant proposals should address one of the two Statements of Need:
- Public awareness and education on the values of wetlands, grasslands, and riparian areas; importance of maintaining soil health and the interconnection with water quality, and the overall health of our natural resources.
- Public awareness and education on the importance of North Dakota’s natural resources.
Next Application Deadline: April 15, 2024
Final approvals of awarded grants are made at our spring board meeting. Applicants will be notified shortly afterward.
