NOAA Bay Watershed Education and Training (BWET) Grant

NOAA's BWET grant has recently expanded to the San Francisco and Santa Barbara. The Watershed Education and Training (B-WET) Program provides organizations with funds to support environment-based education to students, teachers, and communities throughout the entire San Francisco Bay Watershed.

Funded projects provide "meaningful" watershed experiences for students and professional development opportunities for teachers. The 2006 funding cycle has passed, click here for more information.
