Finding the green
The Pennsylvania Growing Greener coalition has a great new guide to assist in identifying funding opportunities.
As funding programs are being reduced or eliminated altogether, it is becoming increasingly difficult for non-profits and local governments to access much needed resources.
The purpose of their single-source guide is to provide an overview of funding opportunities that may be of help to you. The guide contains a thorough listing of state funding programs for conservation, preservation and recreation projects, including the more recent funding made available from Act 13 of 2012.
In addition to a list of specific grant opportunities, you’ll find tips on how to apply and where to go for more information.
The guide is available for download on Growing Greener's website and will be updated regularly as new information is gathered so be sure to check back often.
