The Schoolcraft Conservation District (SCD) is very excited to announce the 2023 Conservation Grants Program. Grants are available to the public for conservation related projects to be implemented in Schoolcraft County. SCD is anticipating awarding up to $5,000 total to 5-7 projects across Schoolcraft County. Grants will range between $800 - $1,000 each. SCD seeks proposals for a variety of projects that have a direct impact to the improvement of our natural resources through hands on educational programs or projects that directly impact the environment.
Prior to completing your application form, please review the criteria for the grant program as well as the summary of the follow-up procedures and Final Project Report required of all recipients of a Conservation Grant. Please review this information carefully as it may prove valuable when designing your project and submitting your application. In particular, please note the deadlines and signatures required for the application. Improperly complete or incomplete applications will not be considered for funding. Each applicant may request up to $1,000 in support, but SCD reserves the right to reduce the amount requested if it deems the project cost isn’t justified.
The application deadline is March 3rd, 2023 at 4:00 pm. Late applications will not be accepted. Applications can be submitted through e-mail or dropped off in our office. All applicants will be notified if they are or are not recipients of an award no later than March 24th, 2023. Awardees will receive their funds at the start of the project period and must have all funds spent by November 30, 2023. If you have any further questions pertaining to the grant application process, or would like advice or help planning your project, please email SCD District Manager, Ashley Reitter at schoolcraftcd@macd.org or call the office 906-286-2890.
