The Kodak American Greenways Awards Program, a partnership project of the Eastman Kodak Company, the Conservation Fund , and the National Geographic Society , provides small grants to stimulate the planning, design, and community acceptance of greenways in communities throughout America. So what’s a greenway? The sponsors define it as:

… protected, public and private land established along rivers, stream valleys, ridges… canals… or other linear features. They link recreational, cultural, and natural features, provide pathways for people and wildlife, protect forests, wetlands and grasslands, and improve the quality of life for everyone.

Although greenways improve the quality of life for everyone, the funders here recognize that some communities may need some persuading:

Grants may be used for activities such as …developing brochures, interpretative displays, audio-visual
productions, or public opinion surveys; and hiring consultants

The sponsors will accept applications from now through June 15.
