The Grow Your Roots Mini-Grant is Rose Foundation for Communities and the Environment’s capacity-building support for recent California Wildlands Grassroots Fund (Cal Wildlands) grantees. It helps grassroots groups strengthen the organizational and administrative skills and systems they use to carry out their work. Funding can contribute toward training, consultants, software, or equipment.
This mini-grant is separate from the foundation’s main Cal Wildlands conservation grants. Its focus is organizational development rather than funding conservation projects directly. It sits alongside shared resources for Cal Wildlands grant partners, including an annual Grassroots Grantee Convening and training series that offer learning and networking opportunities.
