Grants FAQ

Not seeing your question? Call us at 231-348-8200
  • Not eligible: Governmental functions (including governmental entities such as units of government, governmental agencies, conservation districts, and conservation authorities) 
  • You must not have any past-due grant reports with us – but don’t let that stop you! Get your grant report in before the application deadline! 
  • You may only receive one Project Grant from us per calendar year, so if you received one in the spring, you are not eligible for another in the fall.
  • If you applied in the spring and did not get funded, you can apply again in the fall! In this case, we recommend you call us to see if there were any reasons your project didn’t get funded originally.

Call Laurie at 231-348-8200 and ask! She will be able to let you know.

If you don’t have a 501c3, you will need another group that is a 501c3 to sponsor your project. For this, we need your sponsor’s information, and a signed letter on their own letterhead agreeing to sponsor your organization.

If you don’t have a group that would sponsor you, we would be happy to try and connect you with an organization that matches the goals of your project – just call us! 

Anything that you need for your advocacy – but not lobbying!
