Consider Neighborhood Matching Grant Program.
Council approved matching grants that allow recognized neighborhoods in the City of Concord Neighborhood Program to complete projects that will enhance their community or neighborhood association. Neighborhood organizations must match these funds with cash, in-kind services or goods, or contribute volunteer time. This program is available to active neighborhood organizations recognized through the City's formal neighborhood program.
