Non-profit Funding Requests

Support of community non-profit organizations is a long-standing commitment of the Grand Junction City Council and at the direction of Council this year, the 2023 non-profit funding request process has been revised.

Requests are now broken into two tiers based on the amount requested. Tier 1 includes requests for $50,000 or less and Tier 2 includes requests greater than $50,000. The Tier 1 request form requires a one-page description of the project and how it aligns with the City’s Strategic Priorities. Tier 2 requests will require a minimum of two pages with a maximum of three pages to describe your project and how it aligns with the City’s Strategic Priorities. Tier 2 requests may also require a presentation to Council. All funding requests will be evaluated based on alignment with strategic priorities and funding decisions will be prioritized according to available resources.

Updated information will be available here in early summer 2023.
