Receive a Grant from Katie's Krops

 

All 24 new Katie's Krops Grantees have been notified. It was an extremely difficult decision narrowing the over 160 applications down to 24. There were so many outstanding applicants. I want to thank everyone who applied.

This Spring new Katie's Krops gardens will be growing from Hawaii to Florida. The gardens will be growing in food deserts, school yards and backyards. Thank you to the wonderful sponsors of our 2013 grant cycle, Opal Apple & WP Rawl for believing that kids can end hunger, one vegetable garden at a time!

Katie's Krops is thrilled to have the generous support of Nature’s Greens and Opal® apples Working together we are excited to offer multiple grants to young individuals between the ages of 9 and 16 in the United States.

The grant winners will receive materials to start a vegetable garden to feed people in need in their community. The mission of Katie's Krops is to start and maintain vegetable gardens of all sizes and donate the harvest to help feed people in need, as well as to assist and inspire others to do the same. The winner will be awarded a gift card to a garden center in their area for $400, support from Katie’s Krops, and a digital camera to document the garden and the harvest. In addition to grant materials all winners will be eligible to attend our very first all expenses paid Katie's Krops Camp in Pelion, South Carolina July 16 to 18th, at the headquarters of WP Rawl (Please see latest news for additional information on our very first Katie's Krops Camp).  Applications for all types of vegetable gardens, such as a container garden if you live in a city, or a vegetable garden located in your neighborhood or at your school, will be considered. Applicants must be between the ages of 9 and 16 as of March 1, 2013. Applications must be postmarked by March 1, 2013. All applications must be filled out completely and signed by a parent or legal guardian.
