Building Healthy Communities South Kern is excited to announce:

Grants to Build Healthy Communities The Grants to Build Healthy Communities Program will provide up to $500 in materials/supplies to groups of residents or youth from South Kern to complete projects that will improve our community. Who can apply for Grants to Build Healthy Communities? Applications can be made by any group of residents, youth, or community partners such as parent groups, groups of neighbors, youth or student groups, or others. Groups should be from the communities of Arvin, Lamont, Weedpatch, or the unincorporated areas of Greenfield. What can funds be used for? Funds can be used for any project that would benefit the communities of Arvin, Lamont, Weedpatch, and the unincorporated areas of Greenfield. Funds can only be used for materials or supplies and not to pay for services or the time it takes to complete the projects. Projects must be completed by October 31, 2014.

We expect that about 20 projects will be funded. Applications must be submitted by 2:00pm on Monday, May 5th to 7839 Burgundy Avenue, Lamont. No late applications will be accepted.
