World Trout - Getting Better and Better

From our inside guru Bill Klyn. Please take a moment to look at how this great program has been expanded.

"Having seen the exciting success of our World Trout initiative that has generated over $333,000 since its inception in 2005, we have created a new process to help distribute monies generated through the sale of World Trout t-shirts. The Enviro Team has worked with us to create a new online grants program so we can solicit and receive applications from grassroots groups working to protect any fish and their habitat from around the globe. This grant application program works much the same as our regular grants program. The World Trout online grants application can be accessed through the Enviro page and also on the www.patagonia.com/flyfishing page. Click on the World Trout square at the bottom of the page and you land on the World Trout page, where you can see, at the bottom of the page, an Application Procedure for applying for a grant. . You can also go directly through www.patagonia.com/worldtrout. The bottom right menu has View our Grants Guidelines. This takes you to the Application Procedure."

If you have any questions at all, feel free to contact me via this blog. This is a fantastic and powerful tool to move important projects forward in this territory. I look forward to hearing from you.
