*MTB PROJECT GRANTS*Got a mountain bike trail project you want to work on? Here’s one funding source. The next deadline is coming soon, but these are offered every quarter.
Shared from International Mountain Bicycling Association
Are you working to improve mountain bike access in your community and need funding? 💰
Each quarter, we select projects to be part of Dig In, a program founded by Shimano that offers an online fundraising platform and $2,000 in matching funds. If selected, you will not only receive a matching grant but also get to share your community trail story to a larger audience.
Ready to dig in and get more trails close to home? We are accepting Dig In Program applications from our Local Chapters and Affiliates until November 30th:
