Grants
Impactful Projects for Responsible Recreation
Tread Lightly! offers grants to support impactful projects that promote responsible recreation and protect access to public lands.
BFGOODRICH® Tires Outstanding Trails Program
With the help of licensing agreements from one of Tread Lightly!’s top partners, the BFGoodrich® Tires Outstanding Trails grants are designed to help individuals and groups organize clean-ups, trail maintenance work days and other small stewardship projects. The average grant is under $500. Those funds can be used for everything from feeding volunteers to purchasing equipment, trash bags, and tools.
Have a Grant opportunity to partner with Tread Lightly!?
To expand the impact of our responsible recreation initiatives, Tread Lightly! is actively seeking partnerships with organizations that share our commitment to outdoor stewardship, conservation, education, and community engagement. By collaborating with land managers, industry leaders, local governments, and aligned nonprofits, we can leverage collective expertise and resources to deliver high-quality educational programming, restore and protect public lands, and empower outdoor enthusiasts to recreate responsibly. Partnership support -combined with grant funding - will strengthen our ability to develop scalable programs, increase volunteer stewardship projects, broaden community outreach, and ensure that trails and public lands remain open, healthy, and accessible for future generations.
