The Neighborhood Matching Fund Program awards matching dollars for projects initiated, planned, and implemented by community members in Seattle. It is hosting three workshops for those interested in applying to its Small and Simple Projects Fund this October. The Small and Simple Projects Fund provides matching awards of up to $25,000.
At the workshop you will get an overview of the Neighborhood Matching Fund, the qualities of a good project, and the application process and requirements.
