Northern Forest Canoe Trail, a non-profit organization based in northern New England that promotes, educates and provides access to canoe and kayak experiences—has won the inaugural $1,000 All Terrain Cares Grant Campaign. Finishing in second place, the Caledonia Conservancy, an organization committed to preserving the rural character of Caledonia, WI, through the acquisition, stewardship and holding of conservation easements, will receive a $500 grant from All Terrain. The third place finisher went to the American Hiking Society which will receive $250.
All Terrain Skin Care launched the All Terrain Cares Grant Campaign on June 1 with the goal of supporting organizations that either provide opportunities for youth to stay active or promote and preserve open spaces. Over the past 30 days nearly 100,000 votes were cast and the Northern Forest Canoe Trail organization came from behind to win the $1,000 first place grant by just 547 votes.
The organization plans to use the funding to assist in the purchase of outdoor education laboratory materials, including aquatic life and water quality collection vials and analysis tools, journals and other materials to allow the data and shared experiences to be shared with explorers from other states in an online community.
Voting is now underway on the second All Terrain Cares Grant Campaign with 20 non-profit organizations vying for the grand prize. To learn more about these organizations and to cast your vote visit AllTerrainCares.com.
