Deadline For Park Slope Civic Council Grants Is Friday

PARK SLOPE, BROOKLYN — Local nonprofits have until Friday to apply for a community grant with the Park Slope Civic Council.

Each year, the council awards various grants to local organizations funded by it's annual House Tour. This year applications for the 2019 Community Grant program are due by Friday, Dec. 14.

The Council judges each application based on a project’s impact to the community, its overall “merits and viability,” and the number of people it will serve, according to the council's website. Each grant will be between $500 and $1,000. Winners will be announced in February.

Last year's winners included GreenSpace on Fourth Community Garden, Friends of Pacific Library, Heights & Hills, which runs the Park Slope Center for Successful Aging, and several other organizations.
