The Greenways Foundation, a statewide, charitable trust providing leadership and advocacy in the growth and use of Indiana greenways and trails, will be granting $40,000 for the development of trails and citizen trail organizations in Indiana this year. Trails include those for walkers/runners, cyclists, horseback riders, as well as water trails for canoeists and kayakers. The group is accepting grant applications for 2022 projects until November 30, 2021.

Perhaps nothing has made us more aware of the need for, and more appreciative of, our public trails to keep us mentally and physically healthy quite like the pandemic. What many Hoosiers may not know is that an all-volunteer organization has been helping to grow and maintain these multi-use trails in Indiana for the past thirty years.
