2012 Call for Proposals

September 26, 2011

Dear Salmon Conservationist:

This is a reminder that our 2012 Call for Proposals is open for receipt of new proposals for funding of salmon conservation projects. We will accept proposals until Friday, December 16th 2012 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. 

The proposal form is now available on our website: www.salmonconservation.ca

Note: There are a few differences from last year, except the following:

Partnership: Proposals demonstrating partnership among the eligible groups are very important to the Foundation, therefore proposals demonstrating real, working partnerships will be considered favourably. Partnerships between First Nations, Aboriginal groups and community groups are encouraged where reasonably possible. All applicants are required to indicate if they have made an effort to attract a First Nation, Aboriginal group or community group, as the case may be, to partner in the proposed project.

The proposal form now requires applicants to respond to this question:

If a community group, have you attempted to engage a First Nation or Aboriginal partner in this project?  Or, if you are a First Nation or Aboriginal group have you attempted to engage a community group as a partner? Indicate the group name(s) you contacted. If you did not attempt to engage partners, please explain why not.

We hope you will submit a proposal. As always, if you have any questions, please contact us at: roz@salmonconservation.ca; or, 506 455-9900.
