Stewards in Motion a Success

Posted November 11, 2019 by LSC

Stewards in Motion events offer community stewardship groups a chance to connect, learn and grow together.

At this year’s event, 50 people gathered in Edmonton to learn from a variety of experts how to boost their grant writing and fund development efforts for their community stewardship groups.

Speakers Jenna Curtis (Alberta Environment and Parks), Graeme Dearden (Volunteer Alberta), Leah Kongsrude (North Saskatchewan Watershed Alliance), Alexandra Frederickson (Land Stewardship Centre) and Simon Irving (Alberta Ecotrust) shared their experience, expertise and insight to help groups:

• prepare strong grant proposals,
• harness volunteer power for grant applications and community based efforts,
• work collaboratively with others on funding applications,
• maintain funder relationships, and more.

Here are several of our speaker presentations:

• Insight for a Strong Grant Proposal Jenna Curtis, Alberta Environment and Parks
• Working Collaboratively on Funding Applications Leah Kongsrude, North Saskatchewan Watershed Alliance
• The Watershed Stewardship Grant Alexandra Frederickson, Land
