The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) is inviting proposals for its ConocoPhillips SPIRIT of Conservation program, which is specifically designed to advance bird species and habitat conservation. This program directly aligns with NFWF's mission to address the alarming loss of 3 billion birds since 1970. The foundation's strategic priority is to support projects that conserve, restore, or enhance critical habitats and to gather essential bird population data, ultimately aiming to reverse population declines. The primary beneficiaries of this program are bird populations, both migratory and non-migratory, particularly those inhabiting grassland, wetland, sage-steppe, and coastal habitats. The program's impact goals include improving habitat quality and quantity, enhancing breeding and wintering grounds, and supporting stopover periods for birds along major migratory routes. Expected outcomes include a measurable increase in bird populations, improved habitat conditions, and the collection of vital data to inform future conservation efforts. The program's priorities and focuses are centered on implementing science-driven and strategic conservation. This involves addressing habitat degradation, fragmentation, and loss. Geographic focal areas are critical, spanning major migratory routes from the northern slope of Alaska to the north-south axis of the central United States, including the Gulf Coast regions of Texas and Louisiana. The program emphasizes innovative methods for gathering lacking bird population data and conserving specific habitat types. Grant awards typically range from $100,000 to $275,000, with projects expected to be completed within two years. Eligible applicants include a broad range of non-profit organizations, government agencies (U.S. federal, state, local, municipal, tribal), and educational institutions. This inclusive eligibility criteria reflects NFWF's theory of change, which recognizes that collaborative efforts across various sectors are essential for achieving large-scale, sustainable conservation impacts for bird populations and their habitats.

The program aims to address systemic barriers preventing individuals from receiving organ and/or tissue transplants, focusing on equitable and equal access to donation and transplantation resources. Target beneficiaries include underinsured, vulnerable, socio-economically disadvantaged populations, and those in rural areas of Colorado and Wyoming who are eligible for or awaiting a transplant. Impact goals include increasing access to resources, education, family assistance, and research projects, ultimately saving lives and improving the quality of life for those affected. Key priorities for funding include projects that demonstrate equitable access to donation and transplantation resources, consider diversity, equity, and inclusion, and propose innovative educational or assistance methods. The Foundation also maintains a focus on Pancreas research and data collection regarding the benefits of pancreas transplantation. They will support efforts to meet the financial needs of pre- and post-transplant patients, increase living donation, and fund medical and social research through pilot studies or seed grants. Expected outcomes include improved access to donation and transplantation resources for underserved populations, increased awareness and education about donation, enhanced family assistance and grief support, and advancements in transplantation research. The Foundation's strategic priorities are centered on community impact, barrier reduction, and fostering a belief that organ and tissue donation are human gifts that save lives.

The Wyoming Women's Foundation (WYWF) is currently accepting applications for its 2024 Grant cycle, with a deadline of May 15, 2024. This grant program is meticulously designed to align with the foundation's core mission: investing in the economic self-sufficiency of women and creating opportunities for girls within Wyoming. The foundation's strategic priority is to address systemic barriers and foster an environment where women and girls can thrive economically. The primary target beneficiaries of this grant program are women and girls residing in Wyoming, across all counties. The overarching impact goal is to enhance their long-term economic self-sufficiency. This is achieved by focusing on programs that help women meet or exceed the Wyoming Self-Sufficiency Standard for their family composition and county, as well as developing opportunities for girls. The WYWF grant program has three key funding priorities. The first is Income and Asset Development, which supports projects like education and job training for higher wages, and asset-building initiatives such as first-home purchases, business development, and retirement savings. The second priority is Mentoring and Leadership, funding programs that boost confidence and create meaningful connections for women and girls, including leadership training, mentoring programs, career development, and STEM programming. The third priority is Systems Change, which aims to address barriers to economic self-sufficiency and the gender wage gap through advocacy and education, such as wage negotiation training and awareness campaigns. Expected outcomes and measurable results include an increase in the number of women living at or above the Wyoming Self-Sufficiency Standard, improved leadership skills and confidence among women and girls, and a reduction in the gender wage gap in Wyoming through systemic changes. The foundation's theory of change posits that by investing in these targeted areas—income and asset development, mentoring and leadership, and systems change—it can directly contribute to the economic empowerment of women and girls, fostering a more equitable and prosperous future for the state. Eligibility criteria stipulate that applicants must have 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status or a sponsoring agency, and the requested grants must explicitly promote the long-term economic self-sufficiency of women and opportunities for girls in Wyoming, addressing at least one of the WYWF granting priorities.
