Hello Birders, Here is a final reminder that applications for the Hartford Audubon Society 2023 Mini-Grant opportunity are due on *February 15th by 5:00 pm. * This year's program has an enhanced level of funding. Our current program considers applications for mini-grants of up to $1,000 to help fund and support initiatives within the State of Connecticut, and especially within Hartford County, which directly benefit the bird life in our state. For 2023, those with larger projects that require funding above and beyond our current $1,000 limit can also submit their applications for consideration of *up to a $5,000 award*. The brief application form and guidelines can be found on the HAS website at Hartford Audubon Society Mini-Grants – Hartford Audubon Society <https://www.hartfordaudubon.org/about-us/hartford-audubon-society-mini-grants/> and you can email me if you have any questions. Thank you, Lisa Lukawicz HAS Mini-Grant Coordinator *Hartford Audubon Society P.O. Box 270207 West Hartford, CT06127-02071*
