Application for LDS Earth Stewardship's Par Rasmusson "Let's Do Service" Mini-grant
LDS Earth Stewardship's mission is to honor the Creator by living and testifying of Latter-Day Saint principles of earth stewardship.
This grant is for small to mid-sized groups who want to organize an environmental service project in their local area and need funds in the $100–$500 range to do so. Projects ought to: make a difference, engage volunteers in a meaningful way, and help people understand the value of caring for our earth.
Depending on how many applications we receive each year, this may be a competitive process, but we look forward to funding as many projects as we can.

Your answer
How will you teach faith-based principles of earth stewardship to the volunteers?

For example, you might read a scripture or hold a short devotional; passages from the Bible or other religious texts are appropriate for interfaith groups. If your group is not allowed to share religious devotionals (like at a public school or institution), you may choose to host a sharing session where each person tells why caring for the earth matters to them.
