Below are funding opportunities of interest that I have
learned about/received RFP notifications about in the past week that I wanted
to share.
Boating

long-term involvement of participants.

multi-generational participation, e.g., engaging seniors as youth mentors.

adequate screening, selection and training of staff, instructors and
volunteers (including a criminal background check).
- Promote
conservation education and include at least one conservation experience
that actively engages participants in a hands-on activity.
- Provide
inclusive programming.
- Support
existing RBFF partnerships

American Tribes, cities, counties/parishes, or other units of local government

Musuems
Deadline: **The deadline to submit an application for the
2012 Conservation Assessment Program (CAP) has been extended to 11:59
pm on Thursday, December 15, 2011.**
All types of museums may participate: aquariums;
arboreta, botanical gardens and nature centers; art museums/centers; children’s
museums; historic houses and sites; history, science and natural history
museums; science technology centers and planetariums; specialized museums; and
zoos. Institutions with fully surveyed living animal collections (such as those
accredited by the American Zoo and Aquarium
Association) may use CAP to assess the conservation needs of their non-living
collections only.CAP is designed to serve only those museums whose collections and facilities can be assessed in a two-day period. Museums whose collections and/or facilities cannot be surveyed within two days should apply for a general conservation survey grant through the Institute of Museum and Library Services’ (IMLS) Conservation Project Support program.
