The target beneficiaries of the Dream Tags Charitable Fund are 501(c)(3) nonprofit agencies, nonprofit educational institutions, and governmental entities that conduct projects exclusively in Nevada. The fund aims to impact Nevada's wildlife and habitats directly, fostering an engaged community in conservation efforts. The impact goals are centered around creating measurable improvements in habitat health and wildlife populations, ensuring that donated funds contribute to tangible, long-term benefits for the state's natural resources. The fund prioritizes projects that demonstrate measurable impact in accordance with its purpose, emphasizing on-the-ground habitat improvements.

The King County Flood Control District is offering Flood Reduction Grants to address flood risks and enhance community resilience within King County, Washington. This program aligns with the District's mission to protect residents and infrastructure from flooding, demonstrating a commitment to proactive environmental management and public safety. The grants are designed to support a variety of projects that contribute to flood reduction and related environmental benefits. The target beneficiaries for these grants include a broad spectrum of entities such as non-profit organizations, special purpose districts, Tribes, cities and towns within King County, and King County agencies. Homeowner associations and schools are also eligible for the "Original Flood Reduction Grant" category. The impact goal is to significantly reduce potential or existing flood risks to property and public infrastructure, while also promoting ecological improvements such as fish passage restoration and shoreline stabilization. The program prioritizes projects across four distinct categories: Original Flood Reduction, Urban Streams, Coastal Erosion/Coastal Flooding, and Culvert Replacement/Fish Passage. Each category has specific focuses, from general flood reduction projects and stormwater retrofits in the Original Flood Reduction category, to green infrastructure and stream restoration in Urban Streams. Coastal Erosion/Coastal Flooding projects emphasize increasing resiliency to sea level rise and restoring shorelines without increasing hard armored shorelines. Culvert Replacement/Fish Passage projects focus on restoring fish passage while also demonstrating flood risk reduction. Expected outcomes include tangible reductions in flood frequency and severity, improved water quality, enhanced habitat for fish and wildlife, and increased community resilience to climate change impacts, particularly sea level rise. Measurable results will be tied to the successful implementation of projects, such as the number of culverts replaced, acres of shoreline restored, or properties protected from flooding. The District's strategic priority is to invest in solutions that offer both immediate flood protection and long-term environmental sustainability, reflecting a theory of change that integrates ecological restoration with hazard mitigation to create more resilient communities. The total amount available for 2024 is at least $12 million, with matching funds encouraged but not required, demonstrating a robust commitment to these outcomes over a grant duration of three years.
