Patagonia Environmental Grants Program

Corporate grants for grassroots environmental groups taking direct action on water, land, climate, and biodiversity.

Patagonia funds small grassroots environmental organizations doing direct action work on root causes of environmental problems. Watershed protection, dam removal, river restoration, and water rights advocacy all fit within Patagonia's funding priorities.Grant sizes are modest ($5,000–$25,000) but the program is one of the most accessible foundation pipelines for small, scrappy watershed groups. Patagonia favors action-oriented work over research or education.Applications can be submitted year-round through the regional grant cycle. Local Patagonia retail stores can also serve as gateway contacts.
