The City of Nevada and the Nevada Foundation have formed a partnership to provide grant funding to nonprofit organizations that address the basic needs of food, shelter, and clothing for the citizens of Nevada. The City of Nevada has committed $40,000 to the Nevada Foundation for these grants this next fiscal year.
Ryan Condon, Mayor of Nevada, explains, “We are proud to partner with the Nevada Foundation to make these grant funds available for these important causes in our community. This is the core reason for groups like the Nevada Foundation to exist, and with things becoming more difficult for Nevada residents, we hope to continue to think creatively on how to help even more organizations in the future.”
All previous Foundation funding awards must be spent, and final reports submitted for a non-profit serving Nevada to apply for this new funding.
An application workshop will be held Tuesday, August 18, at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall for those organizations that have never applied for funding or those who desire an application refresher.
The applications will be due by 4 p.m. on Oct. 2. The final award announcements will be made no later than Oct. 30. Application materials can be found on the Foundation website: www.nevadaiowafoundation.org/human-services.
