East Lansing Safe Routes to School
Funding ELSRTS
Safe Routes to School programming is supported by two types of funding: mini grants and major grants. Each type of funding allows us to serve East Lansing students from Kindergarten through Grade 8! Our funding is awarded through the Michigan Fitness Foundation and the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT), through a Federal Highway Administration program.
Mini Grant
Mini grant funding supports our day to day operations and our work in East Lansing K-8 schools. Read more about our mini grant programming.
Major Grant
Major grant funding supports infrastructure improvements along routes that lead to school, such as filling sidewalk gaps, upgrading crosswalks, and traffic calming. Our Action Plans are created through the support of the MSU Safe Routes Team in cooperation with the City of East Lansing, school communities, neighborhood residents, the Michigan Fitness Foundation, and MDOT.
