Empowering Charlotte Neighborhoods Through Community Impact Grants

Funding Opportunities for Local Initiatives to Strengthen Community Bonds

Charlotte's Community Impact Grants provide essential funding for neighborhood groups and small nonprofits aiming to implement projects that foster community engagement and improvement.

Whether it's organizing a neighborhood movie night, hosting a community health fair, coordinating a litter cleanup, installing signage or benches, or launching green initiatives like tree planting or garden builds, these grants are designed to support a wide array of community-centered activities.

Three Grant Categories, One Unified Goal: Stronger Communities

Recognizing that vibrant neighborhoods are built on local leadership, shared ideas, and strong relationships, the Community Impact Grants invest in initiatives that bring people together, enhance quality of life, and promote collaboration.

Each grant category has specific guidelines, application steps, and timelines to ensure projects align with community needs and objectives.

Additional funding opportunities, including one-time or seasonal grants, may be announced as resources become available.
