BoatU.S. Foundation for Boating Safety & Clean Water Invites Applications for Grassroots Grants Program
Deadline: February 28, 2010

The BoatU.S. Foundation for Boating Safety & Clean Water Grassroots Grants Program funds projects that educate the public about actions they can take to be safer and cleaner while boating. The program seeks projects that reflect a unique and repeatable way to reach boaters with upbeat safe and clean boating messages.

The program provides grants to volunteer boating groups, clubs, and associations. Local nonprofit/tax-exempt organizations, including chapters of national organizations, are eligible to apply. Federal and state government agencies, national or international organizations, for-profit businesses, and individuals are not eligible.

Grants may be requested in amounts up to $4,000. Allowable expenses may include artwork, printing, mailing, educational materials, construction supplies, and other expenses directly related to outreach activities. Proposals that include in-kind donations of product and/or time are encouraged.

Visit the BoatU.S. Foundation Web site for complete program information and examples of funded projects.
