$90 million dedicated to landscape-scale conservation projects.
The Department of the Interior announced $91 million in grants through the America the Beautiful Challenge, a partnership between President Biden’s administration and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation. The money will be distributed through 55 new grants, which will support large conservation projects in 42 states, three U.S. territories, and 14 Tribal Nations.
“Nature is essential to the health, well-being, and prosperity of every family and every community in America,” said Interior Secretary Deb Haaland. “Through the America the Beautiful Challenge, we are investing in projects that advance collaborative conservation utilizing the best available science, innovative practices, and Indigenous Knowledge to help conserve and protect our lands and waters.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For Secretary Haaland to seek the Lord’s direction as she collaborates with foundations on conservation.
- For Interior officials as they work with tribal leaders on protecting natural resources.
