Partners

Every September, the Everglades Foundation accepts applications for matching grant proposals and annually contributes close to $1.5 million towards restoration efforts by awarding programming funds to environmental organizations working directly on Everglades issues. Thirteen diverse partner organizations received 2010 Program Grants for specific projects and are used in Research, Policy Development, Coalition Building, Outreach and Communication and Environmental Education. Environmental organizations that have received Foundation grants and environmental organizations that partner with the Foundation on strategic programming are invited to serve on the Foundation's Environmental Advisory Council. And whether their individual missions and respective staff specialize in water, fish, parks, or land conservation--together we provide the type of collaborative strategizing that is critical to the overall success of a comprehensive restoration.
