><DIV></DIV>&gt;Hello all,
><DIV></DIV>&gt;
><DIV></DIV>&gt;I am currently employed at the Appalachian Cultural
Museum, a
><DIV></DIV>&gt;non-profit museum in the heart of the Appalachian
Mountains. This area
><DIV></DIV>&gt;is known for its biodiversity, and we at the Museum are
interested in
><DIV></DIV>&gt;showing our visitors a sampling of some of the plants
that can be found
><DIV></DIV>&gt;here. Currently, we offer a seasonal native wild-flower
garden. In
><DIV></DIV>&gt;the hopes of expanding this garden and in keeping with
the theme of the
><DIV></DIV>&gt;Museum to show the region's similarities with other
areas of the world,
><DIV></DIV>&gt;we have decided to construct an Asian garden.
><DIV></DIV>&gt;
><DIV></DIV>&gt;My question to the list is, does anyone know about any
possible funding
><DIV></DIV>&gt;opportunities or any foundations/individuals that might
be interested
><DIV></DIV>&gt;in learning more about the Asian garden and providing
funding for our
><DIV></DIV>&gt;project? Any suggestions on good places to look for
funding
><DIV></DIV>&gt;information?
><DIV></DIV>&gt;
><DIV></DIV>&gt;Feel free to contact me off-list
><DIV></DIV>&gt;
><DIV></DIV>&gt;Thank you for your time,
><DIV></DIV>&gt;
><DIV></DIV>&gt;Sarah Poteete
