The Ruby Bridges mini-grant application is now open! These grants are awarded of either $500 or $1,000 and are available to support celebrations on or around Nov 18th. This annual celebration honors Ruby’s courage and highlights the importance of anti-racism, kindness, and community connection. Projects must promote constructive dialogue about activism, anti-racism, and anti-bullying, inspire young people to make positive changes in their community, and encourage students to walk, bike, or roll to school on the day of the event. We love helping out with this day, so don't hesitate to reach out! https://saferoutespartnership.org/2026-ruby-bridges-walk-school-day-application-now-open/

The French Broad River MPO is asking for feedback on transportation projects being considered through North Carolina's transportation prioritization process.

Projects include roadway improvements, bicycle and pedestrian facilities, transit investments, freight projects, and safety enhancements across our region.

The survey allows you to review proposed projects and tell us what you think. You can support projects, express concerns, or share a neutral opinion—and you only need to rate the projects that matter most to you.

Your feedback will help inform how the MPO allocates its limited local input points, which can influence how projects are scored and ranked for potential state and federal funding.

Take the survey before it closes on July 22nd:

Would your school like to secure a spot in our programming for the next school year? Now is a good time to start that conversation. Ideas of programming are walk or bike to school days, Storybook trail installations, school-wide active living challenges, pop-up bike parks, safety education, curriculum enhancements, or even just to have our staff available for tabling. Follow the link here to get the wheel rolling. https://forms.office.com/r/ix59xwqx9C
