(January 23, 2020) – The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) and Wells Fargo today announced the release of the 2020 Request for Proposals for the Resilient Communities program, which provides grant funding to enhance community capacity to plan and implement resiliency projects, and improve the protections afforded by natural ecosystems, by investing in conservation and nature-based infrastructure.

The Resilient Communities program will invest up to $3 million in projects to increase and enhance preparedness by taking advantage of natural and nature-based features like wetlands, resilient shorelines, urban tree canopies, natural forests and healthy watersheds to improve quality of life and sustainability for communities.
Specific funding priorities for this program include: High-impact resiliency adaptations to help communities prepare for fire, floods, and droughts as well as sea-level rise Demonstration and capacity-building projects that help communities understand environmental risks and opportunities and organize and take actions to improve local resiliency by enhancing natural buffers and system functions Scalable, nature-based resilience solutions that positively impact housing affordability and/or the ability of small-businesses to thrive in communities vulnerable to impacts from natural disasters Competitive proposals will yield measurable and sustainable benefits for natural habitats while also providing measurable and enhanced community benefits to improve resilience and serve vulnerable low- and moderate-income communities that tend to be disproportionally impacted.
Priority is given to projects serving these communities. For additional information about the Resilient Communities program please visit: www. nfwf.
