Grant Proposals Review
The New Mexico Outdoor Recreation Division (ORD), a division of the New Mexico Economic Development Department (EDD), announced the award recipients of the Outdoor Equity Fund (OEF) for the 2022 grant cycle.
The first-of-its-kind OEF was created to enable all New Mexican youth equitable access to the outdoors. The grant supports programming that provides outdoor experiences that foster stewardship and respect for New Mexico’s land, water, and cultural heritage.
“New Mexico pioneered the Outdoor Equity Fund in 2019 when Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham signed the grant into law,” EDD Cabinet Secretary Alicia J. Keyes said. “I’m so proud to continue supporting this next generation of outdoor industry leaders.”
ORD would like to thank the amazing volunteer evaluation committee that spent hours reviewing and scoring the applications that came in from throughout the state.
