Youth Educator Grant Program
Youth Educator Grant Program
The North Central Region SARE (NCR-SARE) recognizes that youth programs are a way to introduce new and exciting farming and ranching options to youth, parents, and community members.
The program supports opportunities for youth educators to research, demonstrate, and learn more about sustainable agriculture. Youth Educator Grants are competitive grants for educators to provide programming on sustainable agriculture for youth. $2,000 maximum.
NCR-SARE can provide grant applications, reports from other projects, lists of funded projects, or other sustainable agriculture information.
Before writing a grant proposal, determine a clear project goal and explore previous research. It often helps to contact NCR-SARE, local agriculture groups, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and/or Extension educators to share ideas and invite participation.
To receive more information about the NCR-SARE Youth Educator Grant Programs’ proposal processes and timelines, contact the NCR-SARE office.
