State: Indiana
City: Bloomington
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 10/20/2023
Size of the Grant: $2,400
Details:
The Bloomington Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Commission (BPSC) seeks ideas that incorporate bicycle and pedestrian mobility into programs, events, or other community activities. Actions that celebrate the virtues of Bloomington, while at the same time incorporating values of the walking and biking culture are the core of the Local-Motion Grant Program. Possibilities for ideas are unlimited for their overall intent (e.g. live performance, parade, tour, class, etc.) and only need to incorporate walk and bike locomotion into the scope. Walking and bicycling are safe, practical, economic, low-impact, and healthy ways to travel around the Bloomington community.
BPSC has funding to support local initiatives that also promote a bicycle- and walk-friendly culture. The primary goal of the Local-Motion Grant Program is to advance bicycle and pedestrian mobility. The Local-Motion Grant Program will provide direct support to initiatives that focus on cultural, dayto-day, or other locally based activities that also aim to strengthen the diverse and vibrant bicycling and walking culture.
