line 		spacer spacer Broadly, The Fund is interested in supporting any project that is related to the environment, urban life, and especially the intersection of environmental and urban life concerns. The topics listed below illustrate our areas of interest, but this is by no means an exhaustive list. We only seek proposals that are consistent with the mission and capabilities of the entity submitting a proposal. We prefer project proposals as opposed to proposals for general program support. We are particularily interested in supporting communications activities that will promote other initiatives in these areas or bring increased attention to the importance of these areas. In some cases we will consider providing funds to support other fundraising efforts by organizations with missions similar to ours, to leverage their impacts.
