grants for expeditionary projects, generally awarded to small&amp;nbsp; mountaineering&amp;nbsp; or adventure travel teams.&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
The application deadline for the Shipton/Tilman Grant is March 1st of each year. A panel of independent judges meets annually in March to review all applications and looks for projects that exemplify the Shipton/Tilman philosophy, utilize simple and light alpine style, and align with the small team expeditionary philosophy. Each year between four and six teams receive a grant ranging from $2000 to $10,000. For more information and applications call 1-800-431-GORE or go to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.goretex.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;goretex.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br/&gt;
