shipping, and agriculture and industry, but for our quality of life. The lakes provide us with, drinking water, fish, a cooling swim on a hot day, or a walk along a sandy beach. They are also home to thousands of creatures; fish, birds, sediment-dwelling organisms and plants that all need to be protected. That’s where we can use your help. Ontario is calling on not-for-profit community groups, youth groups, schools, First Nations and Métis communities and other local groups to help protect and restore their part of the Great Lakes by applying for a Great Lakes Guardian Community Fund grant. The fund, now in its fourth year, supports community projects with a direct environmental benefit such as: · planting trees · creating rain gardens · restoring wetland habitat · controlling invasive species · cleaning up a beach or shoreline · naturalizing stream banks and shorelines. You can get a grant of up to $25,000 for your project. Smaller projects are also encouraged. This year’s fund will award $1.5 million in total for eligible projects.Since 2012,$4.5M has been awarded to 221 community-based projects. Projects must be completed by February 2017. I strongly encourage you or your group to apply for a grant. Be a Great Lakes Guardian. Help us restore, protect, and conserve our Great Lakes to keep them drinkable, swimmable and fishable. Together we can make a real difference in Great Lakes communities across the province. Glen Murray, Minister of the Environment and Climate Change How to apply:
