The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) is offering grants to assist high school fishing clubs in providing quality fishing programs for their members.
A news release says grants up to $500 are available to clubs that participate in approved conservation activities, such as kids’ fishing clinics, fish habitat improvement projects, Stream Team cleanup, special fishing events and others.
To apply, interested schools or club leaders should submit an online grant application at MDC’s website at mdc.mo.gov- highlighting the conservation activity in which they plan to participate. Just put “High School Fishing Club Grant” into the search bar.
For more information about the grant or the application process, contact Andrew Branson at (573) 522-4115, ext. 3501 or via email at Andrew.Branson.mdc.mo.gov.
