Applications for the Neighborhood Matching Fund Small and Simple grant program are due by 5 p.m. Monday, July 12 – that’s just three weeks away.
FOLKpark received $15,000 back in November through the Small & Simple projects fund for the redevelopment of Lower Kinnear Park.
Under the program, which first started in 1988, award recipients will receive up to $20,000 for their projects. Each award is matched by the communities’ volunteer labor, donated materials, donated professional services or cash.
Earlier this year the Interbay Neighborhood Association was awarded $17,000 in Small & Simple funds for the construction of two parks in the area’s commercial district.
To be eligible, an entrant must prove that their project will improve their neighborhood and community.
