Grant Offering for Small Grant Program Team Contact

The Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board (OWEB) is now accepting online grant applications for Small Grant Team Contacts.

Program Overview
The Small Grant Team Contact grant offering provides up to $20,000 in grant funding for the administration of one Small Grant Team in each of the 28 OWEB Small Grant Areas around the state. This grant funding supports outreach efforts to engage new Small Grant Team members and potential applicants for program funding. Grant funding also supports facilitation of application review processes as Small Grant Teams accept, review, and recommend or deny funding of applications for Small Grant projects.

Additional information about the program, including program guidance and a recorded webinar, can be found on OWEB’s Small Grant Program webpage.

Applications are due by 5:00 pm on September 15, 2025

Applications must be submitted using OWEB's online grant application.

Eligible applicants for Small Grant Team Contact grants include not-for-profit organizations, Soil and Water Conservation Districts, Tribes, Watershed Councils, political subdivisions of the state that are not state agencies, schools, community colleges, Oregon state institutions of higher education, and independent not-for-profit institutions of higher education.
