The Indiana Native Plant Society supports well-conceived grant projects that are in line with our mission:

  • To promote the appreciation, preservation, scientific study, and use of plants native to Indiana.
  • To teach people about their beauty, diversity, and importance to our environment.

INPS funds two grant programs, each with its own emphasis, application process, and timelines. Please review the program guidelines for each to determine which is best suited to fund your project.

Letha’s Youth Outdoors Fund

The Fund seeks to bond children with nature by supporting travel to natural areas with guidance by knowledgeable leaders. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis; grants are awarded to appropriate projects as long as funds are available.
