Description
This grant, administered by the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department as part of the New Hampshire Partnership for Schoolyard Action Grants, funds projects that connect students with the outdoors and enhance schoolyards for wildlife habitat. The program aims to simplify the grant application process for educators and foster hands-on, nature-based learning by supporting the creation of pollinator gardens, outdoor classrooms, native plantings, trails, ponds, and citizen science stations. Projects must integrate with school curricula, involve a team approach, and demonstrate administrative support and sustainability planning.
