Warner Fall Foliage Festival Grants
The WFFF is committed to giving back to the community, and as a part of that mission, grants are awarded for deserving projects in the Warner area.
Each year, thousands of dollars of Festival proceeds have been awarded to community organizations and projects, thanks to the hard work and commitment of the many volunteers who donate their time and energy to make festival come alive. Warner organizations and individuals contribute hundreds of hours of volunteer time each year, saving costs and enabling all proceeds to go directly back to the community.
To request funding, your organization must have at least one representative who actively participates by either signing up to volunteer in that year's Festival or by helping set up or break down.
Festival grant applications are due prior to the Festival each year.
