Community Grants
The Community Grants Program provides direct financial contributions to organizations in our community for specific projects and initiatives. Areas of interest are broad including, but not limited to, the arts, education, children’s services, social services, women’s issues, historic preservation, public affairs and conservation.

The Committee reviews applications and selects recipients. Grants are typically awarded in an amount ranging from $500 to $3000.
