National 4-H Council Community Tree Planting Grants

by: National 4-H Council

The National 4-H Council offers grants at the community, county, and state level for young people and adults to take action on issues critical to their lives, their families, and their communities. Grant recipients are expected to take the lead in the design of the project, the proposal writing process, implementation, and evaluation of funded projects.

The National 4-H Council's Community Tree Planting Grant Program will provide community action grants in the amounts of $200 to $1,000 to stimulate community tree planting and/or reforestation projects across the United States. Grants will be awarded to communities in support of ongoing community tree planting and/or reforestation projects or to stimulate new and creative youth-led projects. Applicants must secure matching funds or in-kind contributions from other sources equal to the amount requested from the 4-H grant program.

For complete guidelines and an application form, see the National 4-H Council Web site.
