WEI Scholarships

Educational Scholarships

WEI is able to provide a limited number of partial scholarships for those in financial need to participate in our educational programming, depending on available funding. Some full scholarships also may be available. We award scholarships based on financial need and applicant’s statement of intended projects and future plans related to environmental justice, farming, or other subject area. Individuals are eligible to receive up to 2 scholarships per year. We cannot offer the same individual more than 2 scholarships per year. Scholarships are awarded based on available funding and the discretion of WEI’s education program.

If you are interested in receiving a scholarship, please submit the application below. The cut-off date for submitting a scholarship is 5 days prior to the specific class or workshop, if the class is not already filled. We encourage you to fill out the application early.

Please email WEI’s Education Program Manager with questions about scholarships.
