The Soil and Water Conservation Mini-Grant program is an excellent opportunity to help fund your students' conservation-based service learning project.
In celebration of Soil and Water's 75th Anniversary, the Board established a Community Mini-Grant program in 2019. Each year, the program offers up to $1000 to Licking County non-profits, demonstrating the need and ability to carry out on-the-ground conservation projects.
In 2024, six applications were received from Licking County non-profits, local entities, and schools for local conservation projects. $4,150 will be distributed among the six organizations!
The Mini-Grant program is open to non-profit organizations such as schools, watershed groups, local government entities, municipalities, community groups, and civic associations within Licking County. The deadline to apply for the 2025 Conservation Mini-Grant is September 26, 2025.
