Proposals Invited for ConocoPhillips Spirit of Conservation Migratory Bird Program
Deadline: October 1, 2010 (Pre-proposals)
The Spirit of Conservation Migratory Bird Program is a partnership between ConocoPhillips and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to provide grants for bird habitat conservation projects in areas where ConocoPhillips has an operating presence.
To be eligible for funding, a project must benefit migratory birds and their habitats. The program supports projects that protect, restore, or manage habitats for migratory birds; benefit declining, threatened, or endangered species; generate measurable outcomes; and provide opportunities for employee participation and volunteerism. Special consideration will be given to projects that focus on American Oystercatcher, Red Knot, Gunnison Sage-grouse, and waterfowl and shorebirds in areas where ConocoPhillips has an operating presence.
Eligible applicants include nonprofit 501(c) organizations, educational institutions, and local and state units of governments.
A total of $600,000 in grants is available. Typical grant awards will range from $25,000 to $200,000 each.
The complete Request for Proposals is available at the NFWF Web site.
