WeConservePA Now Accepting Applications For Project Planning Grants

WeConservePA is now offering $20,000 grants to help small and mid-sized Pennsylvania land trusts (that meet the qualifying criteria) pursue the conservation of land for the public benefit—supporting all stages of landowner outreach for conservation acquisition projects. 

Grants may also be used to fund title research, preliminary environmental review, project planning by staff, and other precursors to completing donations, bargain sales, and purchases of property interests.
