We receive funding for our work from a variety of diverse sources.

SRAM Cycling Fund has provided $200,000 in 2009 for federal policy issues associated with the Safe Routes to School National Partnership.

Grants and Contracts

Cy Pres Awards
The Safe Routes to School National Partnership welcomes nominations for cy pres awards. Cy pres are funds in class action cases (and sometimes other types of proceedings like probate matters) that, for any number of reasons, cannot be distributed to the class members or beneficiaries who were the intended recipients. Typically, courts can distribute these residual funds to appropriate charitable causes, and the Partnership is an appropriate beneficiary. If you would like to nominate the Partnership as a beneficiary of a cy pres award, please contact Deb Hubsmith, (415) 454-7430.
Sponsorships
Corporations are invited to approach us about the possibility of sponsoring the Safe Routes to School National Partnership and any of our specific programs.
Partner Affiliates
Our partner affiliates are encouraged to donate on an annual basis to help support our work of advancing the SRTS national movement.
Individual Donations
Individual donations to the SRTS National Partnership are welcomed and are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
