TRU receives national grant

The American Public Transportation Association recently presented $5,000 grants to nine grassroots coalitions through its Local Transit Coalition Grant Program – and TRU’s Trans4m coalition was among those chosen!

Trans4m, a diverse and influential coalition of Michigan public transit supporters, is designed to shift public perception of transportation priorities and persuade policy makers to focus transportation investments beyond roads and highways.  Learn more and sign up for email updates at the Trans4M website. 

APTA’s grant will help to energize Trans4m’s goal of involving 100 businesses and organizations from all over Michigan in the coalition by December 31, 2011.  If your group cares about transit and wants to help transform Michigan’s transportation policy, sign your organization up.
