Welcome
to grants.firesafecouncil.org.
This grants clearinghouse site is made possible by National Fire
Plan grants from California Fire Alliance member agencies. The
Alliance is providing this pilot service to make it easier for
communities statewide to find grants to reduce their wildfire
risk, and to get technical assistance.
The
clearinghouse gives eligible organizations the ability to apply
to multiple programs with one concept paper. It gives funding
agencies the ability to coordinate planning, and to consider funding
projects they might otherwise not know about.
The
Fire Safe Council facilitates the clearinghouse by providing technical
assistance to applicants, shepherding concept papers to funding
agencies and, for some agencies, passing through grants to organizations.
Grantwriting
sessions will be offered in six cities in California in November.

process.
