$$$$ Grant Money Available $$$$

The Washington Chapter of The Wildlife Society provides grant money for worthy projects. Beginning in 2006 the deadline for submission of proposals is March 15th of each year. Proposals will be reviewed by the Grant Committee and final funding decisions will be made by the Board. Grant recipients will be announced at the Chapter's Annual Meeting.

Proposals should be 2-3 pages in length and include the following information: Introduction, Methods, Time-Table, Budget, Products to be Produced, and a Curriculum Vitae. Funding requests should not exceed $1,000, except in unusual circumstances. Student proposals are welcome.

Proposals will be rated based on the following criteria: Appropriateness of the project to the goals of The Wildlife Society, adequacy of proposed methods to the project objectives, researcher's experience, and importance of research in relation to the requested funds.

Grant recipients will be expected to present results of their project at a future Annual Meeting of the Chapter and/or provide a write-up for the Chapter newsletter. Recipients are also expected to be (or become) members of the Washington Chapter at the time the funds are received (see Membership page for details).

If you have questions, or wish to submit a proposal, please contact John Lehmkuhl (509) 664-1737 jlehmkuhl@nwi.net or Bill Gaines (509) 662-4232 wgaines@fs.fed.us (or contact the current president of Washington Chapter of The Wildlife Society).
