The Partners for Places grant program, hosted by The Funders Network, aims to enhance local capacity to build equitable and sustainable communities in the United States and Canada.
The $45,000 to $100,000 for one-year projects and $75,000 to $150,000 for two-year projects grants support partnerships between a local government sustainability or water department, a frontline community partner, and a place-based funder for the planning and implementation of equitable climate action or green stormwater infrastructure projects that address frontline community priorities.
One-year grants are provided to strong, existing partnerships to plan or implement a project. Two-year grants support the creation or improvement of collaborative partnerships and the planning or implementation of a project. The grants require one or more local foundations to provide at least a 50% match.
Support will be provided for six to eight projects in the current grant round.
The Kentucky League of Cities serves as the united voice of cities by supporting community innovation, effective leadership and quality governance.
