NANPA Foundation Grants

Philip Hyde Grant:

This $5,000 grant, provided by Fine Print Imaging through its Art for Conservation program and the NANPA Environment Committee, is awarded annually to an individual NANPA member who is actively pursuing completion of an environmental project and that is peer reviewed.

The application deadline for the 2009 grant is August 31, 2008.

Criteria for receipt of the Philip Hyde Grant are as follows:

  1. The grant will be awarded to an individual who is working on an existing project designed to improve, protect or preserve the condition of the environment.

  2. Recipient must be a NANPA member.

  3. Photography must be an integral component in the environmental project.

  4. The environmental project may involve either wildlife or nature concerns.

  5. Significance and viability of the project will be the prime determiners in awarding the grant.

  6. The grant is not to be used as seed money for research. The environmental project must already be underway.

  7. The environmental project need not occur in North America, but North American projects will be given first consideration.

  8. All elements of the project must be performed within the legal parameters of local, regional, state and federal governments.

  9. Application must be accompanied by an outline including the purpose of project, accomplishments to date and proposed uses of the funding.

  10. A grant recipient may apply for the following year's grant, whether for a new project or a project which previously was awarded the Philip Hyde Grant. Preference will be given to applicants who have not yet received the Philip Hyde Grant.

  11. An annual report outlining the use of the grant must be furnished to the NANPA Foundation no later than March 31. Such annual reports must be provided until all of the grant funding has been allocated towards expenses, at which time a closing report will be furnished to the NANPA Foundation no later than 90 days from the time the grant money has been completely allocated towards expenses.

  12. Should the grant not be awarded in a given year, due to a lack of qualifying grant proposals, the grant money may either be awarded as an additional grant in the following year or be used by the NANPA Foundation for an environmental education project of its choosing.

  13. The NANPA Foundation may, with the prior approval of an agent of Fine Print, Inc., alter the Philip Hyde Grant qualifications and/or award criteria in any way which enhances the NANPA Foundation's mission.

Application forms for the Philip Hyde Grant are available online (Grant Application PDF file) or from the NANPA office (address below).
