Short Description

Citizens Committee offers small grants for volunteer-led projects that improve and strengthen communities, and that involve neighbors in a meaningful way. Our grants are for grassroots community groups in economically under-resourced neighborhoods. We do not award grants to individuals, agencies with paid staff, religious, fraternal, or partisan organizations.

Through the Mollie Parnis Dress Up Your School Awards, Citizens Committee offers grants of $500 to $3,000 to support student led projects that beautify schools or neighborhoods immediately surrounding schools.

Applications are accepted twice a year. Fall deadline is September 30, 2009; Spring deadline is March 14, 2010.

For more information, email Citizens Committee or call Saleen Shah or Arif Ullah at (212) 822-9580.
