The City of Knoxville is currently accepting applications from non-profit organizations for Community Agency Grants for fiscal year 2009-2010, which begins on July 1, 2009.
The deadline for filing an application is 5 p.m., Friday, March 6. The city will not consider late applications.
To apply for a grant an organization must operate within the City of Knoxville and it must have been in operation for at least five years. Two organizations may choose to apply as a partnership, but only one of them will be designated as the applicant.
Priority in awarding the grants will be given to proposals that contribute to the goals and mission of the City of Knoxville, for example, promoting downtown.
Additional information and applications for the city's Community Agency Grants may be obtained at www.cityofknoxville.org/citygrants/ or by calling Cathy Chesney at 865-215-2831.
