Note:  28 applications were received from 22 parks.  From these 28 applications, the 18 listed above were approved by the Washington State Parks Foundation Board for funding. 

The “Small and Simple Grant” program is designed to meet real needs in our state parks that are often too small to get attention through other means.  These grants are available to all of our state parks on an annual basis, through a competitive process involving both State Parks managers and the Foundation board.  This program is funded from the monies donated by our contributors.  It is a way that even the smallest contribution can help make a difference in our State Parks system.
