Friends Of South Mountain Partnership, Appalachian Trail Conservancy Accepting Applications For Flex- Grants

The Friends of
South Mountain Partnership and the Appalachian Trail Conservancy has new Flex-Grant funding available to support initiatives within their community that further the goals of the Partnership and advance the capacity of partners throughout the region. 

The deadline to apply is July 29.

This small-scale funding opportunity is intended to support projects not traditionally eligible for the SMP Mini-Grant Program. 

In addition to supporting the SMP mission and goals, priority will be given to ideas that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in our region. 

Example projects and initiatives are shared below, but all projects with connections to conserving landscape resources, promoting landscape resources, and/or connecting people and organizations with common goals around conservation are encouraged to apply. 

Requests from $250-$600 will be considered, and any requests must be separate from projects submitted through the 2022 SMP Mini-Grant program

Eligible applicants include 501(c) 3 non-profit organizations, municipalities, counties, educational institutions, community groups and businesses. All projects must be within Adams, Cumberland, Franklin, or York County.
