GRANTS

Over $107,000 in grants have been issued by the National Horseshoe Pitchers Foundation. In 2003, the NHPF began issuing grants to construct or upgrade horseshoe pitching courts on public property. While currently capped at $3000, the Foundation is committed to supporting up to four (4) grant applicants per year. There is no legal obligation to repay the grant. However, the NHPF Directors may look more favorably upon those applicants who pledge to hold annual fund-raising events to donate something back so the Foundation can continue to support other clubs and grow the grant amounts in the future. The directors review Grant requests in the months of March and September each year.
