Grant opportunities

The Delf Mini-Grant program is designed to support small projects in the metropolitan area which includes Clackamas, Multnomah, Washington counties and urban Clark county in Washington.  

Mini-Grants are not intended to contribute small amounts to larger budgets nor to sustain ongoing efforts.  Applicants may request up to $500, and total project budget should not exceed $3,000.

Mini-Grants are typically not awarded to any individual or organization in consecutive years.

Mini-Grant awards are made on a quarterly basis, and application submission deadlines are March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 each year.

The Catalyst Grant program is designed to support innovative projects that clearly identify an emerging community need and/or may precipitate or provide the stimulus for a future project in the metropolitan area which includes Clackamas, Multnomah, Washington counties and urban Clark county in Washington. 

 These proposals should be developed with attention to the identified areas of focus.

The Catalyst Grant is a one-time only grant per project.

Catalyst Grant awards are made on a semi-annual basis, and application submission deadlines are June 30 and December 31 each year.
