Bradley/Murphy Forestry & Natural Resources Extension Trust announces grant program
Two programs available for educational activities
Bradley/Murphy Forestry & Natural Resources Extension Trust Announced
The Trust was established several years ago with the purpose of assisting Extension and related educators with expenses related to programs and projects. Two separate grant opportunities are available: a project grant and a postage grant. The project grant program offers up to $2,000 to publicly recognized and qualified organizations whose programs establish links between non-industrial private forest owners and professional foresters; involve non-industrial private forest owners and consultant foresters; and/or provide solutions to environmental problems through the free market system.
Anyone interested in this program should request a “Format and Guidelines for Submitting A Grant Proposal” from Harry E. Murphy, Secretary/Treasurer, Bradley/Murphy Forestry & Natural Resources Extension Trust, 3128 Woodhaven Drive, Birmingham, AL 35243. Application deadline is April 20, 2004.
Also, postage money is available to send invitations to landowners for educational events that involve consulting foresters and landowners. Those interested in this opportunity should send a letter to Mr. Murphy stating the amount requested, a brief description of the event, a brief description of the participation of consulting foresters and forest owners, number of invitations to be mailed to forest owners, postage cost per invitation and copy of the invitation and/or program.
