The Sierra Club - Lancaster Group will accept requests for proposals for its next round of Green Project Grants. Any Lancaster County organization with a project that promotes sustainability, expands environmental awareness, and improves green infrastructure is eligible to apply for a grant. The deadline to apply is Thursday, March 31.
The program annually awards grants of up to $500 to charitable, educational, or business associations that demonstrate a commitment to the Sierra Club's mission of exploring, enjoying, and protecting the planet in Lancaster County. When applying for a grant, organizations should consider how their projects relate to an ecological preservation or educational effort that focuses on a topic such as storm water management, rain gardens and rain barrels, native plantings, pollinator plants, organic gardens, composting programs, or hands-on learning. The Lancaster Group will offer its expertise and labor to support those projects that are awarded grants.

Winners will be notified via email on Earth Day, Friday, April 22. For additional information about the program, contact Jim Meenan at 717-475-0586 or at jimsmeenan@gmail.com.
