DNR Announces GOSP Grant Funding Conservation Projects

The Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR) announced the selection of the 2024-2025 Georgia Outdoor Stewardship Program “Conserve Georgia” grants for conservation and outdoor recreation projects. Selected applicants are now invited to the second-level application, marking the final level of the application process for their proposals. This cycle will commit $24.6 million in funding to support local parks and trails systems and state-owned lands. These grantees have also committed an estimated $36.5 million to match grant dollars.

“By supporting projects aimed at the acquisition, development, and stewardship of local parks, trail systems, and conservation areas, we are not only protecting the natural heritage but also enhancing the recreational opportunities for our communities,” said Walter Rabon, Commissioner of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and Chairman of the Georgia Outdoor Stewardship Trust Fund Board of Trustees. “This investment will ensure that Georgians can continue to enjoy and connect with the outdoors for generations to come.”
