Short Description

Citizens Committee offers small grants for volunteer-led projects that improve and strengthen communities, and that involve neighbors in a meaningful way.

New Yorkers for Better Neighborhoods Grants are for grassroots community groups in economically under-resourced neighborhoods to work on creative community improvement projects that bring neighbors together. Eligible groups can receive a grant of $500-$3,000, one-on-one project planning assistance, enrollment in our skills-building workshops, and access to our equipment loan library.

Individuals, agencies with paid staff, religious, fraternal or partisan organizations are not eligible to apply.
