The Choose Clean Water Coalition recognizes that many of our Coalition members are looking for short-term and long-term funding solutions in response to the federal fudning freeze. The Coalition is working to secure a more permanent solution for this need, but in the interim, we are working with funders to provide information on new funding opportunities.

Funding from Foundation for Pennsylvania Watersheds (PA only)

Working Capital Loan Program

The Foundation for Pennsylvania Watersheds (FPW) understands the need for working capital to help with cash flow while waiting for grant reimbursements.  Requests for working capital loans with no interest are now being considered.  These requests should be tied to a specific project with an awarded grant contract.  Please use this link to fill out an initial inquiry form.  For more information or to set up a preliminary phone call, please reach out to me. 

Operational Support Grants

The FPW’s operational support grant program is intended to support organizations experiencing financial impacts from the federal and state funding changes.  Operating support of up to $5,000 can be used to cover staff time, legal costs, consultant fees, or other general operating costs.  Please only send one request per organization.  Please use this link to fill out an initial inquiry form.  For more information or to set up a preliminary phone call, please reach out to Maggie Anderson at manderson@thefpw.org.
