We're thrilled to announce this year's grants and prizes, which includes five new awards. We kicked things off this week by selecting the two winners of the early sign-up prizes. Watch the announcement video here on Instagram.

In this email, you'll find:

1. Information on this year's grants and prizes.
2. The registration link for our April 15 training.
3. The list of this year's participants (so far!)
4. Where to get graphics and logos to support your communications.

What's new this year?

• Three new “interest area” grants: due to donor generosity, we've added grants to support organizations that do work in specific areas: the environment/natural resource conservation, arts and culture, and education. Categories are determined by the thematic area your organization selected in the sign-up process.
• Additional Peer-to-Peer prize: we added a 2nd place prize for this award worth $500.
• Changes to the Farthest Donor prize: we added a second $500 prize. We also broadened the criteria for this award:
• All online donations made at least 2,000 miles from the CFNRV office qualify. Winners will be randomly selected based on the donor’s billing address.
• No Text-to-Give prize: this year, we are not offering an award for using the Text-to-Give tool. However, this tool is still available for organizations to use.
