King County is offering its fifth year of grant opportunities for unincorporated Community Service Areas.
A total of $60,000 in King County Community Service Area Program grant funding is available for projects costing less than $5,000. Project examples include:
- Initiatives that engage youths,
- Events such as concerts, festivals and educational and safety projects,
- Neighborhood improvement projects such as tree planting, graffiti removal and cleanup,
- Community-led planning or training,
- Signs for a neighborhood or community.
Proposals should demonstrate how activities would be accessible to all unincorporated King County residents regardless of race, income or language spoken.
A minimum match of 25 percent in the form of volunteer time, cash or in-kind services of the total project cost is required. Applications are due Monday, Nov. 16.
Priority for funding will be given to locally based, community-led organizations in unincorporated King County that encourage collaborations and partnerships.
