Group gets $100,000 grant to help James River
The James River Association, a Richmond-based conservation group, is getting a $100,000 grant to help build awareness of the river's problems and to protect the James from polluted runoff.
The RBC Blue Water Project Leadership Grant, from the Royal Bank of Canada, is scheduled to be presented today in Richmond.
RBC's Blue Water Project is awarding grants totaling $4.1 million to 31 organizations throughout Canada, the British Isles and the United States. The grants support programs that help protect watersheds and improve access to clean drinking water.
The James River Association is one of only two U.S. organizations to receive grants, according to the group.
