Established in 2005, our annual Environmental Grant Program offers funds for innovative, community-based environmental projects that improve, restore or protect the watersheds, surface water and/or groundwater supplies in our local communities. We are pleased to offer this modest assistance to our community partners, while leveraging local resources and capabilities to make a positive impact on the environment.
To qualify for Environmental Grant funding, a proposed project must be:
- Located within an American Water service area [Crawford, Clarion, Forest, Venango and Warren counties are in the service area]
- Completed between May and November of the grant funding year
- Be a new or innovative community initiative, or serve as significant expansion to an existing program.
For more information, please see our 2012 Program Brochure and Grant Application Form.
American Waterworks is also accepting scholarship applications for students who plan on attending postsecondary schools for education in environmental science, biology, chemistry, or environmental engineering. Students must live in the service area, but may attend a school outside of the service area. The deadline is February 29.
