Boost biodiversity by enhancing or protecting aquatic habitats that hold a rich variety of life or by discouraging human actions that could result in species loss. Prevent ocean pollution by cutting marine debris off at its source and turning off the tap on land-based contaminants. Chances are you could use a financial boost to get started on habitat projects that will help to improve the health of the ocean. Support is available for projects. Any grade, from kindergarten up to and including high school, is eligible.
Youth groups supervised by qualified leaders are also eligible.
Transportation costs are not covered. Plantings must consist of native vegetation. Please apply only for the amount of money you need. Try calling on volunteers, getting your community involved, or having students bring what they can, such as hand tools or rakes and shovels, from home. The Blue School fund selection committee meets in the spring and fall and evaluates all applications according to a point system.
