Neighborhood Small Grants Program 2006-07

What it is?

New program provides $200,000 in small grants to neighborhood and
community-based organizations.  Grants being distributed through seven
neighborhood district coalitions.  Applications
<http://www.portlandonline.com/oni/index.cfm?c=43131&>  are being accepted
through November 1, 2006.

 

Goals of the grants program

The program's goal is to support neighborhood and community-based
organizations through projects that build their organizational capacity,
attract new and diverse membership, and sustain those already involved in
their organizations.

 

Projects are encouraged to:

*       Establish partnerships amongst neighborhood associations and other
under-represented community-based organizations;
*       Provide opportunities for under-represented communities to become
engaged in the neighborhood system; and
*       Result in re-invigorating community participation and implementation
activities associated with VisionPDX (the effort in which residents are
invited to help envision Portland 20 years from now.)
