November 1st Deadline to Apply Quickly Approaches |
The BoatU.S. Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water has a great way for your local non-profit boating organization to help keep our waterways safe - but time is running out. The Foundation's Boating Safety Grant program offers individual grants of up to $4,000 for boating safety projects.
However, to have a chance at funding organizations need to apply by the November 1, 2008 deadline. A total of $50,000 is available for this campaign.
Over the past 20 years, the Foundation has awarded over $800,000 to organizations that have developed creative projects to promote safe boating on local waterways. Some of them include producing movie theatre public service announcements, flying a blimp with safety messaging above popular boating spots, and the creation of an interactive, downloadable chart highlighting local safety concerns.
While all applications will be considered, the Foundation will give preferential consideration to grant proposals that incorporate new and innovative ideas that focus on how to reduce alcohol related fatalities.
To download an application and learn more about these Boating Safety Grants, please visit http://www.BoatUS.com/foundation or call 1-800-245-2628, ext. 8354. Grant applications must be emailed or postmarked on or before November 1, 2008 and will be announced in January 2009.
