2006-2007 Global ReLeaf Grant Applications Due Now, January 15

Global ReLeaf, a program of American Forests, is offering grants towards tree planting projects. Applications are due now for Fall 2006 planting and January 15.

The Global ReLeaf grant program provides private dollars to support local tree planting efforts and help match other funding sources. American Forests raises a dollar for every tree planted with Global ReLeaf. This dollar supports both Global ReLeaf staff and the reforestation projects themselves.

Competitive grant requests must maximize the use of total project funds per tree planted. Reimbursable grants are available to support projects restoring damaged forest ecosystems.

For support for fall 2006 planting projects please contact Ethan Kearns at 202-737-1944 x224 or send email to: ekearns@amfor.org as soon as possible

For support for 2007 projects, the deadline for proposals is January 15, 2007.

Further information regarding Global ReLeaf Grants including application forms and criteria can be found on the Global Releaf webpage.
