Greetings Delta Member and Amateurs.

**************************************************************************

ARRL Foundation Club Grant Program

The ARRL has long recognized that it is in the best interests of Amateur
Radio to encourage and support amateur radio clubs. Clubs historically
have recruited, licensed and trained new radio amateurs and have
provided the community setting for radio amateurs to continue their
education and training. The ARRL Foundation Club Grant Program, funded
by a grant from Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC), will make
$500,000 available to clubs, enabling them to more easily provide and
expand these important services. The program will provide up to $25,000
for worthy club projects, while requests for more than that will be
referred back to ARDC. 

The deadline for the First Round of applications is June 30, 2022.

An informational webinar about the ARRL Foundation Club Grant Program
was held on May 4, 2022.

Slides from that presentation can be viewed here (PDF):

! Get on the air projects; ham training and skills development through
  mentoring;
