Natural Resources Foundation to Offer Grants
For the City-Times
The Natural Resources Foundation of Wisconsin is now accepting applications for the 2014 C.D. Besadny Conservation Grant and Teacher’s Outdoor Environmental Education Grant.
Grants ranging from $100-$1,000 are awarded annually to projects or programs in Wisconsin that benefit the public, involve management and restoration of Wisconsin’s natural resources, or contribute to knowledge about Wisconsin’s natural resources through education. In 2013, the Natural Resources Foundation awarded more than $26,000 to 30 community partners across Wisconsin through these grant programs.
Interested parties may obtain a grant application by visiting wisconservation.org. Questions about the program may be directed to Caitlin Williamson at (866) 246-4096, or [email protected].
Applications must be postmarked by September 6, 2014 and should be mailed to the NRF office at P.O. Box 2317, Madison, WI, 53701. Grants will be disbursed in October.
