Neighborhood Services is excited to offer grants to Fort Collins neighborhoods again in 2010! Neighborhood grants are available twice a year. Grant amounts range from $25 to $500 for any event which builds community and benefits everyone in the neighborhood.
Grants will be evaluated based on the following criteria: - fostering positive neighbor relationships, - building a sense of pride in one's neighborhood and community, - number of neighbors participating and benefiting from event, and - matching donations and volunteer hours contributed to event. As the grant program gets more popular and more competitive it is more important than ever to reflect the neighborhood contributions and any donations on your grant application. 2010 Grant Deadlines 1st Round: March 1 2nd Round: June 1 The 1st grant round is for events occurring between April 1 and July 31, 2010.
