Overview
Grant Description
Cooperative agreement funding is requested to support the administration and expansion of NFWF's Great Lakes programs: Sustain Our Great Lakes (SOGL), Chi-Cal Rivers Fund (CHI-CAL), Southeast Michigan Resilience Fund (SEMI), and Conservation Partners Program's Great Lakes Priorities (CPP).
Funding requested via this cooperative agreement will be directed to NFWF program administration activities, contracts, program expenses, and sub-awards funded under its Great Lakes programs.

- Focus Area 2: Invasive Species Control
- Focus Area 3: Regenerative Agriculture Technical Assistance and Implementation
- Focus Area 3: Green Stormwater Infrastructure
- Focus Area 3: Riparian Restoration for Water Quality Improvements
