Mini Grants are a great way to ease into the Safe Routes to School movement, and start building a culture of walking, biking, and rolling at your school. These grants allow schools and communities to create programs that educate and encourage students to stay healthy and active, and to reduce traffic around schools. Up to $5,000 per school is available, and up $25,000 per school district.
The 2019 Mini Grant application deadline closed on March 1, 2019. MFF is aiming to notify applicants in late April or early May about the status of their funding proposals.
Refer to the non-infrastructure sections of the eligibility list for what could be eligible under the SRTS Mini Grant.
