Northwest Fund
for the 
Environment
"Grants by the Northwest Fund are from an endowment designated to be spent promoting change in the uses of natural resources which will increase their protection and preservation in the State of Washington. Special emphasis is placed on "the protection of wild fish, native wildlife, natural forests, wetlands and shorelines, and the preservation of pure and free-flowing waters."
 

 

 

 

 

Update from the Board and staff of the

NW Fund for the Environment:

In response to a significant decline in our endowment we are implementing a number a changes in our giving. Below are the highlights. For more information please read our 2008 President's Message.

  • We are retooling our Small Grants Program into a Community Response Fund for requests of up to $3,000 that will be available in three cycles throughout the year.
  • Our maximum level of support for our regular cycle grants will be capped at $20,000 for the foreseeable future. 
  • Our application process and forms will be more streamlined to assist applicants whose capacity to seek support is being stretched thin.
