Funds Available for Bicycle Education in Spokane – Deadline Approaching

The SpokeFest 2014 Bicycle Education Grant Fund is now open for application. The Deadline for application submission is May 15, 2014. Funding will be available June 1, 2015.

SpokeFest wants to help fund a project that seeks to advance bicycle education and safety for the Inland Northwest. As of Wednesday, April 16th SpokeFest has not received any ideas for funding. Your idea (or someone you know) might be the bicycle education idea they’re waiting for.

Projects funded may include one of the following:

  • A project that helps people become familiar with bicycling and enables them to feel more comfortable participating in the activity
  • Projects that educate motorists about the rules of the road in regard to bicyclists
  • Educational programs that promote bicycle commuting
  • Creating bike routes for different fitness levels and providing necessary information about access and support facilities along the way

If you know someone in the Inland Northwest Region who has an idea for a bicycle education project, encourage them to submit their idea by filling out the application . Submissions for funding should meet the guidelines described in the grant description.

Applicants are asked to submit an electronic copy of the completed application to spokefest@gmail.com The application is available at www.spokefest.org under the Education link. Applicants will be notified by email of the status of their request.
