GRANTS
Federal, state, county and public and private foundation grants are available to parks and recreation
agencies. Grants often require matching funds. A number of grants, along with money raised through
a capital campaign, may be required to fund one project. Grants most often finance planning,
acquisition and development of park and recreation areas and facilities.
Competition for grant funding can be very intense. While capital development staff monitors common
grant funding sources, application time tables and source financing are always in flux making it
difficult to stay current with available grants.
