AOR has recently learned that The Gray Family Foundation’s environmental education grant program will be making a few extra grants in 2019 (applications due December 1, 2018).

The additional funding is made possible through a partnership between the Gray Family Foundation and BottleDrop Fund. BottleDrop Fund is a new grant-making program at the Oregon Community Foundation that will, in years to come, be making grants for work related to the original spirit of Oregon’s bottle bill law, such as, litter and waste reduction, environmental conservation, environmental education, public-private private partnership, and skill building and job creation.

For its initial year, the BottleDrop Fund has elected to work with another well established and highly regarded grant-maker to maximize its impact and reduce administrative costs.
