Join the Treasure Hunt!

You don’t have to be an official treasure hunter to “find” hidden treasure. Nor do you have to trek miles in Yellowstone or blast through boulders to find up to $2,500. If your agency qualifies to submit a 2025 Risk Management Grant and Recognition application, all you have to do is email your agency’s safety solution to PDRMA by Friday, Sept. 5, to be in the running to receive a grant.

"It’s always exciting to see what safety issue inspires members to come up with creative solutions,” says Sophie Ottley, Property/Casualty Operations Coordinator. “And each agency can submit a maximum of two entries.”

How it Works

Our application process is simple, and each member can submit up to two applications annually. PDRMA’s Risk Management Committee awards grants of between $250 and $2,500 in increments of $250 up to an annual maximum of $20,000. Email your completed applications — or questions — to RMGrant@pdrma.org
