In late March and early April, the National Forest Foundation (NFF) awarded roughly $500,000 in grants to 11 nonprofits working in partnership with the Forest Service on the White River National Forest to restore wildlife habitat, improve watersheds, enhance recreation opportunities and engage community members in forestry efforts.

SUMMIT SPECIFIC

In 2014, the success of the Ski Conservation Fund spurred the NFF to launch a new guest contribution program called the Summit Fund.

That fund expands the concept of the Ski Conservation Fund to all businesses in Summit County, and the money is used only for projects in Summit instead of the entire White River National Forest.
