Community Support
Grants Program
Supporting environmental and beautification projects that benefit our community.
About the Program
Investing in Our Community
The Grants Committee solicits, reviews, and recommends grant applications from Concord community organizations. Grants are awarded to proposals that best support the mission of the Club: projects that assist in the preservation, restoration and development of gardens and the natural environment in the Concord community. Whenever possible we avoid funding labor costs, non-plant material, annual plants, and ill-defined projects. Efforts to include native plants as defined by The Native Plant Trust are appreciated. Previous year recipients may re-apply.
