The city’s grants team will offer a final technical assistance session for applicants from 2-3 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 8.
Approximately $1.5 million is expected to be available, with typical awards ranging from $10,000 to $100,000. Nonprofits providing community services and enrichment programs to Rockville residents are encouraged to apply.
For the FY28 cycle, Rockville is encouraging applications for programs that advance one or more of the city’s five impact focus areas: household stability, economic mobility, youth and family success, service access and navigation, and community enrichment and belonging.
Grant funding typically supports nine service areas: adult education, arts and culture, food and clothing services, health care, housing services, resources for immigrant communities, public safety, senior services, and youth development. Competitive applications will explain how the proposed program contributes to one or more impact focus areas.
