SCBC has $1331.00 available for distribution from the SCBC Endowment managed by Centre Foundation. These funds will be distributed either as several small grants or one large grant. Activities that could be funded include (but are not limited to): Projects: - setting up or maintaining bird boxes at a public park or installing bird safe window treatments in a public building. Research : - helping with costs of materials, equipment, transportation or professional conference fees related to conducting avian research. Education: - helping with costs of materials, equipment, transportation or professional conference or workshop fees related to avian educational activities.
We look forward to your ideas. Please pass this notification onto students or others who are doing any activities related to bird conservation who may be interested in applying.
Anyone interested in applying for the funding should complete the attached grant application submitted as a PDF attachment by April 30, 2024 to Susan Braun (<braun3112...>).
