The Martin Miller Fund was started in 1987 for the purpose of acquiring habitat to be protected in perpetuity for plants, animals, birds, fish, and their ecosystems. The fund has helped preserve extensive habitat in the region including wintering habitat for eagles on the Skagit River, a nature reserve on Lummi Island, and a wildlife corridor on Bainbridge Island, among many other land parcels.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Birds Connect Seattle\u2019s Martin Miller Fund periodically seeks applications for grants to help acquire wildlife habitat to be protected in perpetuity. Protection of the habitat value must be a primary purpose of the acquisition, and is usually done by an approved conservation easement. Other forms of protection are occasionally approved. The conservation easement or other protection must prohibit activities that would interfere with the habitat value of the proposed acquisition. We also usually require that, if the preservation purposes can no longer be met and the property is sold, the portion of the sales proceeds equal to our portion of the original purchase price must be used to purchase additional wildlife habitat.<\/p>\n
Martin Miller Funds may only be used to help pay the purchase price for the property. For example, we can\u2019t provide stewardship funds or closing costs. Grants typically range from $5,000 to $35,000; occasionally more. We will not be running a spring 2024 grant cycle. We will update this page with any future RFPs, when funding becomes available.\u00a0<\/strong>Please check back in spring 2025 for more information.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”2000-2009″ open_toggle_text_color=”#000000″ icon_color=”#0A3C23″ toggle_icon=”"||divi||400″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#FAF5F0″ background_enable_color=”on” global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_text_color=”#000000″ toggle_font=”–et_global_heading_font||||||||” open=”off”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”1990-1999″ open_toggle_text_color=”#000000″ icon_color=”#0A3C23″ toggle_icon=”"||divi||400″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#FAF5F0″ background_enable_color=”on” global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_text_color=”#000000″ toggle_font=”–et_global_heading_font||||||||” open=”off”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_sidebar _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_sidebar][et_pb_menu menu_id=”1438″ dropdown_menu_active_link_color=”#000000″ module_id=”.sidebar_nav” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” menu_line_height=”1.2em” module_alignment=”center” custom_css_main_element=”border-top:3px solid #7cc68d; \t||border-bottom:3px solid #7cc68d;||padding:10px;” custom_css_menu_link=”margin-top: 8px;||min-width: 280px;||display: block;||margin: auto;\t||” custom_css_active_menu_link=”font-weight:bold;\t” custom_css_dropdown_container=”width:100%;\t” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_css_menu_link_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_css_menu_link_tablet=”margin-top: 8px;||min-width: 280px;||display: block;||margin: auto;\t||” custom_css_menu_link_phone=”margin-top: 8px;||min-width: 280px;||display: block;||margin: auto;\t||”][\/et_pb_menu][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/birdsconnectsea.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/a1_6935_1_great-horned-owl_lawrence_miller_adult.jpg”<\/a>; alt=”Photo: Lawrence Miller\/Audubon Photography Awards” title_text=”a1_6935_1_great-horned-owl_lawrence_miller_adult” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||2px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”0px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Great Horned Owl \/ Lawrence Miller \/ Audubon Photography Awards<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n
