Partnership Pathways Grants, Allegany Franciscan Ministries
Organizations new to CJCC funding and those serving in geographic areas where the CJCC has limited funding relationships will be prioritized for Partnership Pathways Grants. Through these grants, we hope to build new relationships and broaden our reach across Florida.
The general purpose of the Partnership Pathways Grants is to support efforts across Florida that:
- Educate workers, employers, and the community about the effect of extreme heat on people who work outdoors, or provide resources and services that help people stay cool.
- Raise awareness about climate gentrification and its impact on low-income and communities of color, or take action to address it.
- Build new coalitions, strengthen existing ones, or engage in community organizing related to climate impacts.
- Advance policy work focused on extreme heat, climate gentrification, and housing.
Allegany anticipates awarding up to 15 grants of up to $40,000 for a one-year period beginning January 2026.
Application Deadline: October 31, 2025

National Fish Passage Program FY25
The National Fish Passage Program (NFPP) provides technical and financial assistance to partners to remove instream barriers and restore aquatic connectivity, improve community safety, and support local economies. Fish passage projects benefit communities by reducing flood risk, improving recreational opportunities, and improving roads while supporting native fish populations and aquatic ecosystems. NFPP project examples include dam removals, culvert replacements, floodplain restoration, and the installation of fishways. It is estimated that for every $1 million invested by the program, $1.5 million in value is added to the economy.The program is delivered through U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) field offices nationwide. Local Service staff work with partners to identify and implement projects. Projects are based on sound science, advance the Service mission, and promote aquatic connectivity. Contact regional NFPP Coordinator in your area for information about program priorities and application process.

Bonnell Cove Foundation
Grants Relating to Safety At Sea: The Foundation encourages grant applications supporting projects which complement the safe operation of boats, both sail and power. Innovative projects resulting in the development of cost effective personal safety equipment, modified operational and training protocols, and methods to increase crew awareness of the need for continued attention to safety are of particular interest.
Grants Relating to the Environment of the Sea: The Foundation seeks grant applications in support of projects intended to increase our understanding of the factors affecting the marine environment both natural and man-made and the best ways to minimize adverse impacts associated with small boat operations. Such efforts might include technologies facilitating "green boats", efforts to conserve coastal and estuarine land, and educational efforts directed at improved stewardship of our oceans and navigable lakes.
Grants are generally limited to approximately to $10,000 or less. We favor organizations which lack substantial operating budgets.The Foundation's Board meets twice annually - in March and October - to consider grant proposals. Proposal deadlines are February 1 for the March meeting and September 1 for the October meeting.
