Do you have a great idea for a new program to educate dairy farmers or share information about the dairy industry with the public?
Dairy’s Foundation is accepting applications through Dec. 1 for grants up to $10,000 for programs that build the skills of students or dairy producers or increase public trust in the people and products of dairy. Organizations across the country, including dairy associations, nonprofits, and educational organizations with a tax status of 501(c)(3) or (5) may apply.
“A grant from Dairy’s Foundation is the perfect way to bring a new program to life or add a new dairy-focused dynamic to an existing event or program,” says Brian Forrest, dairy producer from Stratford and chair of Dairy’s Foundation board of directors. “In recent years, grants have funded a variety of programs from dairy education exhibits at museums or events to distributing dairy-themed books, as well as supporting educational programs for FFA students and conferences for cheesemakers and dairy producers.”
For more than 20 years, Dairy’s Foundation has been focused on raising funds and awarding grants to support educational and sustainability initiatives for the dairy industry and those impacted by it. Since 2010, Dairy’s Foundation has awarded more than $365,000 in grants to support vital programs that equip the dairy community with the latest tools and resources to be effective managers, leaders and ambassadors of dairy to their neighbors in rural and urban settings.
Applications will be reviewed by an independent grant-selection committee.
