The Marjot Foundation supports environmental education at the public high school level. Each year we fund individuals or teams of high school students conducting an environmental research project. Projects may focus on any area of environmental research, and must be designed by the student applicant.
Applications will be accepted from public high school students, Grades 9– 11, for one-year projects. Total grant amount per project is $3000 ($1000 for the research student(s), $1000 for the project mentor and $1000 for required supplies).

Marjot awardees must present their research in progress to the board at mid-ear, and must compete in a state science fair in the spring/summer.
