The City of Sacramento has launched a neighborhood clean-up program! The Recycling and Solid Waste Division provides grant funds for programs or events that collect and remove trash and debris as part of community clean-up efforts.
Donor Name: City of Sacramento
State: California
City: Sacramento
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: Ongoing
Size of the Grant: up to $800
Details:
The purpose of the program is to provide financial assistance to interested groups to offset costs incurred in conducting clean-up events and foster neighborhood pride. Neighborhood associations, volunteer groups, and other nonprofit associations are encouraged to submit proposals.
Grant allotments are up to three events per council district, plus eleven (11) citywide at-large events for a total of up to 35 possible grants in a fiscal year. This ensures neighborhoods in each council district will have an opportunity to benefit from the grants.
Grantees are limited to three grants of $800 – on a citywide basis – during each fiscal year. Example: one group could conduct three clean-ups in three different areas of the city and be eligible for $2,400 in funding.
