Dominion Resources, parent company of Dominion East Ohio, announced yesterday that it will provide $1 million in environmental grants this year through its charitable foundation. The competitive program is designed to support short term projects by nonprofits and K through 12 schools working to improve the environment.
There are two components to this year's grants. Non profit organizations are invited to apply for grants of up to fifty thousand dollars each for short erm projects that promise measurable results to improve the environment. Also, public and private K-12 schools in eligible regions are now invited to apply for classroom grants of up to five thousand dollars each for environmental education programs.
Eligable organizations can submit applications until March 1, 2017. Recipients will be announced in April.
