The foundation has awarded $446,000 in grants to 48 nonprofit organizations in North Idaho, including $10,000 to the Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness, the Spokesman-Review reports.
The Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness will use the grant to fund trail maintenance, first aid training, and CPR training, among other things.
