The Lumber Heritage Region (LHR) is pleased to announce the recipients of its 2022-2023 Mini-Grant Program. These grant projects will leverage more than $66,000 in local spending to build communities and improve life for the residents and visitors.
The mini-grant program is possible through the funding provided by DCNR’s partnership grant. The LHR was able to fund seven of the fifteen organizations that applied for the grant. “We are ecstatic about the number of great projects that were presented in this round of grants. It’s unfortunate we couldn’t support all of them.” Says Executive Director Holly Komonczi.
Since 2001, the LHR has leveraged more than 3 million dollars in projects in the Lumber Heritage Region. It is the mission of the organization to support communities and preserve the forest products industries by making tools and assets available to visitors and residents of the fifteen-county region.
To get involved or donate to one of the many projects in the region email to info@lumberheritage.org or log on to the LHR’s website at www.lumberheritage.org
Recipients include Cameron County Recreation Center – Cameron County – $2,255 for Dark Skies programming.
Congratulations to Rowan Crisp & Josh Zucal for winning the $2,255 grant!
