Cornell Lab of Ornithology Press Release
Funds support neighborhood events about birds and nature
Ithaca, NY--The Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s “Celebrate Urban Birds” project is accepting applications for mini-grants to fund neighborhood events that promote an appreciation for birds and nature. Organizations working with underserved communities are strongly encouraged to apply. No experience with birds is required. Grants average $250-$500.
Celebrate Urban Birds mini-grants should be used to support a bird-activity day at a local museum, afterschool program, library, or community center, or fund art and gardening activities at clubs, businesses, schools, senior centers, or neighborhoods. Events or projects should feature activities involving birds, community service, art, and greening. Participants are encouraged to collect simple information about common birds and report to the Cornell Lab.
