NeighborWoods Month Mini-Grant 2008
Thanks to support from The Home Depot Foundation, the USDA Forest Service, and the National Tree Trust, the Alliance for Community Trees is able to offer extra support to make your local NeighborWoods Month events more memorable. NeighborWoods Month Mini-Grants are a package of professionally designed marketing materials worth $500, plus up to $500 in financial assistance. Grants should enable you to host a more successful event rather than be the determining factor in whether you organize an event. Eligible events involve the public during October in tree planting, tree care, education, and other activity that engages people in urban and community forestry, and are branded as NeighborWoods Month events.
