The City of Ferndale’s Organizational Grant Program annually seeks proposals from outside organizations that assist homeless, low-income, and senior members of the community, and also economic development initiatives that assist particularly small business development within the City of Ferndale.
Donor Name: City of Ferndale
State: Washington
City: Ferndale
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 08/31/2023
Details:
The City of Ferndale provides grants to various human services and economic development organizations to enhance the quality of life for homeless, low-income, and senior residents and to promote economic development within the City. The challenge, given the City’s inability to serve all needs for all people and all businesses, is to determine how to create the greatest impact with available funding.
Statement of Need
- Low-Income/Homeless/Seniors Support
- The City of Ferndale supports the goals of senior enrichment, particularly in terms of ensuring their senior residents have adequate nutritional assistance. These programs, however, are beyond the monetary capabilities of a City of their size.
- Economic Development
- The City of Ferndale lacks the funding to continually assess the economic outlook of the community in order to determine the best long-term solutions to boosting economic development in the City in order to provide essential services.
Eligibility Criteria
Non-profit organizations, governmental entities or educational institutions that provide assistance to low-income, homeless, and senior residents, or that promote economic development at the municipal level may apply through the Organizational Grant Program to assist the City of Ferndale in supporting these various resident and business user groups in the City to promote a vibrant, enriched and economically viable community.
