SMALL GRANTS FOR BIRD CONSERVATION PLANNING OFFERED - Tom Keith

Grand Island, Neb. -- The Nebraska Partnership for All Bird Conservation, a coalition made up of nearly two dozen organizations interested in bird conservation, is making small grants available to organizations and communities interested in bird conservation planning, according to Mark Humpert, the Nebraska Game and Parks Commissions wildlife diversity program manager.

Humpert said the small grants are being made possible through a grant received earlier this year from the Nebraska Environmental Trust.

The purpose of the grants is to assist in the grassroots development of strategic plans that address habitat issues within landscapes important to birds. Grant funds can be used to hire professionals experienced in bringing diverse audiences of citizens, agency staff, and other participants together for strategic planning sessions.

Humpert said interested parties should contact Steve Moran, Rainwater Basin Joint Venture coordinator at 308-382-8112 to find out how to apply. The deadline for grant proposals is October 22, 2004.
