Description
The Audubon Wildlife Fund Grants, offered by Montana Audubon, provide funding for research and educational projects that contribute to the conservation, enhancement, and public appreciation of Montana’s wildlife and natural communities. Established in 1996 and funded through a permanent endowment, these grants prioritize projects focusing on nongame wildlife (such as birds and invertebrates) and their habitats. The program encourages applications from small nonprofits, research projects, and graduate students, especially those with significant research, educational, or recreational value. Grant recipients are required to submit a brief project report by September following the award.
