The Washington Native Plant Society (WNPS) Conservation Committee is now accepting grant applications for on-the-ground projects that will restore, improve, or support functioning native plant ecosystems in the State of Washington, USA. Successfully funded projects must provide public benefit and align with conservation principles identified in the WNPS Conservation Statement. Funds will be awarded based on the Committee's determination of which projects would bring the most significant ecological benefit and the likelihood of a project's long-term success.
Grant applications for 2018 will be accepted through March 1; responses will be sent by April 1. Requests up to $1500 (USD) will be considered, as will smaller requests. Funded projects will be featured in the WNPS flagship journal, Douglasia. For application information see: http://www.wnps.org/conservation/conservation_grant.html .
