Summary
These grant opportunities are designed to support both rural and non-entitlement areas across a central U.S. state. The program offers funding primarily to local governments and community-focused organizations, with a separate track supporting for‑profit businesses and cooperatives.
Award amounts vary significantly—from smaller community enhancement grants of around $1,000–$10,000 up to larger economic development awards reaching $750,000. Funding is intended to drive improvements that enhance quality of life, spur infrastructure development, expand essential community services, or fuel economic growth through job creation and business expansion. Examples include public space beautification, facility upgrades, business infrastructure, or commercial rehabilitation.
Larger grants are typically structured as low-interest loans, with potential forgiveness of up to 25% when project goals—such as retention or creation of low- and moderate-income jobs—are met. Smaller grants usually require a modest local match, often around 10%, and typically do not involve repayment.
Eligible applicants range from municipalities, counties, nonprofit organizations, chambers of commerce, and economic development entities to for-profit businesses and agricultural cooperatives. Projects must benefit disadvantaged or underserved communities, often with specific focus on poverty reduction, public facility improvements, or small business viability.
Applications are accepted on an annual cycle, with some programs running rolling windows throughout much of the year and others featuring fixed submission deadlines spread across spring and fall. Typical timelines include several weeks to months of review, followed by award announcements and one-year project completion periods.
Overall, this grant opportunity supports a broad spectrum of community, nonprofit, and business-led initiatives aimed at revitalizing towns, strengthening essential services, and expanding economic opportunity—with awards ranging from a few thousand to three‑quarter million dollars.
