Sarah Folzenlogen - Education Programs Coordinator

The Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics recently awarded its first round of 2008 Connect Grants to provide direct support and Leave No Trace training for organizations and people that serve culturally-diverse communities. The primary Connect Grant goals are to increase the cadre of culturally diverse Leave No Trace educators, provide education for organizations serving Latino, African American, Native American, Asian as well as other communities, and provide broader Leave No Trace opportunities for youths not served before by these programs.

The second round of funding will be awarded in late August. To learn more about the program or to apply for a Connect Grant visit: http://lnt.org/programs/grants.php
