The John Gardner Grant Fund's 2023 Annual Report outlines the organization's mission to preserve and expand the achievements of John Gardner by supporting projects related to traditional small craft heritage. The fund provides competitive grants ranging from $200 to $2,000, with a preference for proposals involving young people. In 2023, three grants were awarded, including support for a youth boatbuilding program and the restoration of a 35-foot New Haven Sharpie. The fund is managed by the Maine Community Foundation and accepts tax-deductible donations to increase its endowment and support future projects. [Extracted from the article] |
