Bikes Belong Grant Program

Bikes Belong Grant Program
The Bikes Belong Grant Program strives to put more people on bicycles more often by funding important and influential projects that leverage federal funding and build momentum for bicycling in communities across the U.S. These projects include bike paths and rail trails, as well as mountain bike trails, bike parks, BMX facilities, and large-scale bicycle advocacy initiatives. The organization's grants program accepts applications in two categories -- facilities and advocacy. Applicant organizations must have nonprofit status or an eligible fiscal sponsor. Requests for funding of up to $10,000 for facilities and advocacy projects will be considered. Bikes Belong funding should not constitute 50 percent or more of a project's budget. Applications for this current round of funding is February 29. Go to http://www.bikesbelong.org/grants for complete program information and application procedure.
