Throwe contracts with the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) to serve as the Field Liaison for the National Coastal Resilience Fund (NCRF), and has made it a priority to spread awareness of the NCRF funding opportunity and its potential to help coastal communities reduce their vulnerability to flooding and erosion issues, while also enhancing fish and wildlife habitat. To do so, Throwe has teamed up with several outstanding organizations to enhance communities’ capacities to compete for various federal funding opportunities, including NCRF.
