Applications for Grants up to $5,000 Now Being Accepted for 2016
Omix-ADA®, the world’s largest independent manufacturer and wholesaler of Jeep® parts and accessories, today announced it will continue grant funding for its popular Rugged Ridge Trail Access Program for the 2016 calendar year. The program makes grants of up to $5,000 available to organizations helping to advance the off-road hobby.
First announced at the 2013 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the company has awarded over $60,000 to date to a number of non-profit off-road organizations in support of the off-road hobby and public land access.
Designed to “Create, Maintain, and Protect,” the two-year success of the program has encouraged President & Owner Al Azadi to continue to reach greater heights; starting with grant approvals for 2016. Each of the grants - which come as part of Azadi’s larger philanthropic effort– were designated for use toward education, stewardship, litigation, or any other activity advocating the conservation of public land and access to recreational trails.
“We adopted the motto ‘Create, Maintain, and Protect’ because it reflects the true founding principles of this program,” said Dave Logan, Program Coordinator and Product Manager at Omix-ADA. “The grants that we contribute go a long way towards protecting and maintaining public OHV trails across America.
Rugged Ridge looks forward to supporting additional organizations in 2016 and onward to help advance the off-road hobby.
Grant applicants must be a US 501(c) or Canadian non-profit organization. Grants are now available for Canadian Trails.
