Where Florida Department of Environmental Protection grants go

Recent grant recipients are concentrated in these states. Funders sometimes fund outside their primary states for high-fit projects, so don't self-eliminate solely on geography — check each opportunity's stated eligibility.

How to apply for Florida Department of Environmental Protection grants

Most Florida Department of Environmental Protection applications require: an organizational profile with mission and programs, a project proposal aligned with the funder's stated priorities, a project budget, and supporting attachments (IRS determination letter, board list, recent financials).
