DGIF Receives NSSF Grant

Virginia's Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF) was one of nine state agencies to receive an NSSF grant for submitting a promising program proposal. DGIF received $78,500 to conduct research and assess current marketing strategies to provide the basis for developing a future integrated communications and marketing plan that will motivate lapsed hunters to purchase a hunting license.

Twenty-six proposals from 21 states were submitted to the Hunting Heritage Partnership judging committee of NSSF.
