Economic & Community Betterment

A Grantmaking Priority
We believe that energetic, vibrant communities are vitally important to the livelihood of all residents of Northwest Ottawa County. We encourage projects that:

  • Support cooperation among municipalities, especially in the areas of recreation, transportation, as well as consolidated planning.
  • Support the revitalization and beautification of areas of commerce in our region.

If your project aligns with the above grantmaking goals, we'd love to hear about it!
