Thirty-six applications were submitted requesting over $734,000 in funds. Approximately $430,000 in funding is available for grants in this funding cycle.
Members of the public will have an opportunity to briefly address (max of 3 minutes) the Committee at the start of the meeting, before deliberations begin on the grant proposals under consideration.
