The start of summer is only days away and now is the time to enjoy the nice weather and take advantage of what the outdoors have to offer. Going outdoors can be very beneficial to one’s physical, as well as mental health. Not only does spending time outside help reduce stress and lower blood pressure, but it also is a great source of Vitamin D. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the U.S. Forest Service, “Being outside in green spaces supports an active and healthy lifestyle, which has shown to increase life expectancy, improve sleep quality and reduce cancer risk.” Especially in today’s modern and digital world, it is important for children to take time away from their screens and appreciate nature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As summer grows closer, GrantWatch<\/a> wanted to help by highlighting some of the top sports and recreation grants available. These grants range from funding for outdoor community events to grants for sports programs and recreational activities. GrantWatch hopes you and your loved ones have a wonderful summer! And don’t forget to take some time to enjoy all the season can give you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
