Possible fit High confidence
Playgrounds are not named, but the fund mainly pays for equipment and building-related projects in recreation and children's areas, which fits play equipment, shade or surfacing. Your organization must own the land, because permanent improvements on land the applicant does not own are not funded.
The Fund awards grants primarily for the purchase of equipment or building-related projects in the following areas: Arts & Culture, Recreation, Environment, Community Vitality, Social Services, Health care, Children, Youth & Education.
Grants are not awarded for admin, operating, or program expenses (including personnel costs and items consumable in nature), planning costs, budget deficits, endowment funds, annual fund drives, essential government services, individuals, sectarian religious purposes, building/land purchases, and/or permanent improvements to buildings or land not owned by the applicant organization.
How to apply
- Confirm your organization is in Shasta, Siskiyou, Tehama, Trinity, or Modoc county and owns the site of the project.
