About the Guide
Our Grant Seeking Resources Guide provides communities with a useful resource for scoping grants and funders who have grant programs that align with the funding needs and goals of parks, recreation, and tourism organizations.
This resource guide is a working document that will be revised and updated periodically as new funding sources become available and other grant programs change or end. For the most part, this resource guide is organized by types of funders: State, federal, and foundation/association/corporate. The last section features economic development grants, which may align well with efforts to use recreation and tourism as a strategy for economic development.
Each entry provides a brief overview of grants and grant-in-aid programs relevant to parks, recreation, and tourism service agencies. Below is a brief description of the types of funders/grants included in this resource guide.
State Grants
Grants through the Illinois Department of Natural Resources and Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity serve to distribute federal funding allocated to the State of Illinois to enhance parks, recreation, and tourism services and to help acquire and develop open space throughout the State.
Federal Grants
These grants are scarce, as most of the grants distributed by the National Park Service and other recreation-focused agencies within the Department of the Interior are for very specific natural resource based conservation grants. Funding that can be used at the local level, such as Land and Water Conservation Fund money, is distributed to the aforementioned State grants.
Foundation, Association, and Corporate Grants
Grant opportunities here are vast, and the list provided is just a starting point. Each grant will have its own stipulations, such as serving only 501(c)(3) non-profits or being by invitation only. Eligibility criteria such as these are briefly mentioned but should be reviewed further on their website.
Economic Development Grants
Enhancements to tourism and recreation infrastructure in rural communities are great economic catalysts that lead to prosperous communities, but this is only one piece of the puzzle. Investment and development of the workforce within a rural community is another key factor in the development of the local economy in rural areas.
The development of recreation and tourism in rural communities provides innumerable benefits to the local economy and residents' quality of life and can preserve and showcase a community’s unique local heritage and traditions. With a much smaller local tax base to draw from, relying upon alternate funding sources such as grant-seeking and inter-agency collaboration among the public, non-profit, and private sectors is becoming increasingly necessary to help build and restore rural communities throughout Illinois.

Get Started with Grant Writing
Finding a grant is step one. Writing the grant is the next step to securing funding for your initiative. There are several steps to effective grant writing, and entire workshop series and courses are dedicated to grant writing. This grant guide provides initial considerations and guidance and shares additional resources to learn more about the ins and outs of grant writing.
- Review for Eligibility: Be sure your organization(s) are eligible for the grant. Read the request for applications (or proposals) carefully. You can search the PDF using the word “eligibility” and find what you need to know.
- Fit with your Ideas: Look at the aims of the grant program and make sure your project fits their aims and goals.
- Develop your Team: Organize an experienced team whose strengths complement each other that qualified to carry out the work proposed.
- Evaluation: Review the information that describes how applicants are evaluated. Usually, a set number of points are allocated to sections such as definition of the problem/issue or identification of need, goals and objectives, methods and/or plan of work carried out to accomplish goals, explanation of the team (e.g., experience, expertise, responsibilities for this proposed project), proposed budget, evaluation plan, and project schedule.
- Develop a 1-page Abstract: Start with a 1-page abstract that describes the issue/problem addressed in the proposal, the project aims and scope, and a brief overview of the initiative needed to alleviate the issue/problem. Get feedback from multiple stakeholders and collaborators.
- Letters of Support: Use the revised 1-page project abstract to secure letters of support and develop a template letter of support that collaborators can tailor.
- The Proposal Narrative: Develop the body (i.e., narrative) of the proposal. Make sure to follow the directions. Proposals that stray from directions are often cut from consideration. Avoid using jargon or scientific terminology that reviewers may not know.
- Budget: Check to be sure proposed costs are permitted in the budget. Some funding agencies may cap personnel or travel expenses. Be sure you keep your budget at or below the maximum allowed.
- Program Evaluation: Most funding agencies ask that you explain how you will evaluate your project/initiative. Describe the purpose of your evaluation (formative, summative, process, outcome), methods and expected outcomes of your evaluation.
- Review and Revise: Make sure to include time to have stakeholders or experts review your proposal and make revisions based upon feedback.

Potential Funding Avenues
Community Project Funding, formerly known as Earmarks, are congressional provisions directing funds towards specific community projects. In this process, each elected member of Congress gets to pick and rank up to 10 Community Project Funding requests.
Community engagement and support are crucial in determining what projects are worth federal funding. Projects that span multiple communities and/or those deemed regionally significant are generally more favorable, as they reach more constituents.
To propose a project for Community Project Funding, reach out to set up a meeting with a staff member for your elected congressmen to present your project proposal.
Through the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), Federal grants are provided to states, who then grant money to municipalities to provide Employment and Training services to adults, youth, dislocated workers, and vocational rehabilitation participants.
- Parks, Recreation and Tourism service providers are major employers for each of these types of employees, making seeking these Workforce Development Grants and Resources a viable option.
- Current legislation is in progress for a Jr. Workforce Development program, which, if passed, could see even more funding available through WIOA grants.
In 2021, the Federal Government awarded $99 million in State Apprenticeship Expansion, Equity and Innovation grants, with grants ranging from $2 million - $10 million. $85 million of this was awarded to states that demonstrated a commitment to increase their diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts.
The current focus is on partnerships with new industries, non-traditional occupations, and industry sectors such as tourism and hospitality, hit hardest by the pandemic.
