Small grants for youth-led projects in which young people serve or educate others in Door County. Any youth group made up mostly of Door County residents can apply, whether organized or informal. A youth group could use it for part of a community playground project, such as a bench or a play piece.

Could a playground win this?

Possible fit Medium confidence

Playgrounds are not named, but a youth-led service project that benefits others in Door County, such as adding a bench, shade, or a play piece at a community playground, fits the purpose. Any equipment bought must be owned by or donated to a 501(c)(3) public charity, and the youth must lead and present the project.

Purpose: To provide financial support to projects in which youth use their skills, talents, and abilities to serve or educate others, with a specific focus on benefiting others within Door County.

Any equipment purchased as a part of the grant must be owned by a 501(c)(3) public charity or donated to one after the completion of the project.
