Cultural Trust Board accepting grant applications

The Tribal Cultural Trust Board is beginning its 2012 grant-making round. Grants ranging from $250 to a maximum of $1,000 are available for Grand Ronde Tribal members to use for cultural projects or activities that support the understanding, practice and preservation of traditional Tribal heritage and culture.

The grant-making round opens Sunday, Jan. 15, and lasts through Wednesday, Feb. 29.

Interested Tribal members can pick up a 10-page application packet at the front desk of the Tribal Governance Center or call Cultural Trust Board Chair Perri McDaniel at 503-879-1313 or 503-435-8118 to have an application packet mailed.

Completed applications must be received by Feb. 29.

The project is supported in part by a grant from the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde funded by the Oregon Cultural Trust, which invests in Oregon's arts, humanities and heritage.
