The True Blue Fellowship is an evolution of the Fellowship Grant Program. The Fellowship focuses specifically on funding projects that address ocean, waterways, and/or climate change issues through a creative arts lens. One of the biggest changes from the Fellowship Grant Program is that the creative arts must serve as the primary method of awareness and/or action in the project.
They admire that you want to tackle an ocean, waterways, and/or climate change issue in your community, and they’re excited to learn more about your project idea.
