Still time to apply to Portland’s Neighborhood Small Grants Program! (11/1)

You still have time to apply for a City of Portland Neighborhood Small Grant for 2012. Grant applicants need to submit their applications by the end of October. The neighborhood coalitions will be giving out approximately $189,600 for community projects and events to be completed in 2012. The goal of the grant program is to provide neighborhood and community organizations the opportunity to build community, attract new and diverse members, and sustain those already involved. Neighborhood associations and community organizations are eligible to apply.

Contact the coalition’s grant program coordinator before you apply to be sure you understand that coalition’s requirements and process:
North Portland Neighborhood Services, Mary Jaron Kelley, 503-823-4099, mary@npnscommunity.org and Arolia McSwain, 503-823-0209, aroliamcswain@gmail.com

Applications Deadlines: Applicants must submit their completed grant applications to the appropriate neighborhood coalition office no later than 2 p.m. Tuesday, November 1, 2011
