The Fund offers grant programs designed to foster grassroots environmental initiatives in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Its small grants program provides grants up to $2,500 to support community involvement in projects that address a wide range of environmental issues throughout New England. Grants for its Boston Grants Initiative, the Fund’s urban grants program range from $500 to $10,000.
