For the Love of Neighborhoods: You Can Apply for a City of Boulder Grant

screen-shot-2017-03-01-at-3-12-04-pm

Did you know that the City of Boulder has a Neighborhood Partnership Grant program? This is an inclusive community program where groups of residents can apply to receive funding for projects that will address specific area needs and create more sustainable neighborhoods. Projects can range from public art to neighborhood gatherings to community planning. All an applicant really needs to apply is a great idea and the support of the neighborhood in which the project is taking place.

The City of Boulder is accepting Neighborhood Enhancement Grant and Neighborhood Spark Grant applications. Applicants may be asked to attend a short information session with the grant committee for the purpose of sharing project details and answering questions. Process questions should be directed to neighborhoodservices@bouldercolorado.gov or 720-564-2111.

It’s an easy five-step process — apply today!

Want to see how others in the community have used the neighborhood grants? View past Neighborhood Partnership Grant recipients.
