Eligibility Criteria
- Organizations that are 501(c)(3) nonprofits, units of local government or public education institutions located in or serving individuals or communities in Eastern Jackson County (defined as East of I-435), suburban Jackson County, and Cass County are eligible to apply for Community Grants funding for Arts, Culture, and Historic Preservation; Adult or Non-Traditional Education; Community Betterment; and Health and Human Services proposals.
- Organizations applying for Wildlife Conservation in Missouri funding are not restricted to serving Eastern Jackson County, suburban Jackson County outside of Kansas City, or Cass County. Wildlife Conservation applications from across the state of Missouri are encouraged.
- Programs are eligible for Community Grants funding for up to three consecutive years. After three years of funding have been awarded for the same program, that program becomes ineligible for one year. Applicants are still eligible to submit proposals for different programs. Exceptions to this rule will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
