Two Popular Community Grant Programs Return in March

Grant Programs

February 18, 2025 - Two popular community grant programs are set to return next month, offering two separate funding opportunities for community projects in Corvallis.

  • The Empowerment Grant Program provides small cash grants to fund projects and initiatives that improve neighborhoods and forge partnerships to address community issues. Examples of past projects include landscape improvements, neighborhood social events, public art installations, education programs, and training services.
  • The Green Grant Program offers funding for community-centered projects that move the dial on climate change and promote the actions of the Corvallis Climate Action Plan (CAP).

Applications for both program will open on March 1, 2025 — check back for more information on how to apply. Both programs are competitive opportunities with distinct grant objectives and evaluation criteria. Community members are encouraged to review the objectives and criteria before applying. 

The City will host an informational session to answer questions about both grant programs at 6 p.m. Wednesday, March 12. The session will take place over Zoom and will be recorded for anyone who can't attend.
