MWCC Watershed Fund
MWCC is actively seeking opportunities to pass through capacity funding to support watershed partners. As these opportunities become available, MWCC will notify partners and post relevant opportunities on the funding section of the webpage. If you have an idea for a way that MWCC may assist you in accomplishing your vision, contact our Executive Director, Erin Farris-Olsen.
