GRANTS
The Neighborhood Small Grants Program provides competitive grants to neighborhood organizations in the city. The goal of the program is to improve the quality of life in the neighborhood while building the capacity of the neighborhood organization to better serve the community. To be eligible to apply for a grant through this program, a representative from your organization must attend one of the three mandatory pre-application workshops.
