Our Grants

The Great Lakes Stewardship Initiative award grants in three categories:

  • Planning Grants: To support the collaborative design and development of regional GLSI hubs.
  • Implementation Grants: To support the establishment and operation of regional GLSI hubs.
  • Continuation Grants: To support the development and institutionalization of regional GLSI hubs. (Regional hubs are eligible to receive a series of continuation grants of decreasing amounts, contingent on adequate progress and the acquisition of matching funds.)

In special cases, small capacity-building grants may be awarded at the discretion of staff to develop readiness within a region or to otherwise advance the goals of the GLSI.
