The FairWays Foundation, established five years ago by Aquatrols to help fund environmental initiatives, will distribute $119,040 to 11 environmental projects worldwide in 2024.
Established in 2019 by former Aquatrols president and CEO Matt Foster, the FairWays Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing conservation and environmental stewardship. By providing grants to both small and large-scale projects, the foundation addresses environmental challenges and supports educational initiatives worldwide.
Withe the latest round of grants, the foundation has now donated a total of $1.1 million to 59 conservation initiatives across the United States, Canada, Europe and Africa.
The 2024 grant cycle included a diverse range of projects, from the GreenerGolf Network conference that serves to inspire golf clubs throughout the United Kingdom to meet the industry's environmental challenges and the AquaArborAware project that focuses on river and forest conservation education in the Anumle community in Ghana. Other notable projects included eco-pond restoration, heathland regeneration and various on-course ecology and sustainability initiatives.

"The FairWays Foundation is extremely proud of this year’s grant recipients," said Gregg Lovell, president of the foundation and Central East territory manager for Aquatrols. "They represent three continents with an increased focus on public outreach and education.
"We can’t wait to see the finished projects and observe the positive impacts they are having within their communities."
