Saginaw Bay WIN announces funding
availability
The Sustainable Communities Initiative Fund of the
Saginaw Bay Watershed Initiative Network (WIN) has announced that it is seeking
pre-proposals for its Fall 2002 funding round.
Projects that support sustainable solutions to
environmental, community, and economic challenges may qualify for funding.
Projects that cross governmental boundaries, encourage partnerships by
leveraging resources, and balance a long-term focus with short-term, "on
the ground" results are given priority. WIN's funding priorities for
2002 are in the areas of wildlife habitat, water resources, land use,
agriculture/pollution prevention, communication/eco-marketing/education, and
sustainable business strategies. Projects must be completed within the 22
county boundary of the Saginaw Bay Watershed.
WIN welcomes pre-proposals from nonprofit
organizations that advance the search for sustainable solutions to current
watershed challenges. We are responsive to new ideas, new research and new
approaches, recognizing that such innovation is necessary to move the concepts
of sustainability forward in the Saginaw Bay Watershed,
