Contact: Kevin Ortiz, Management Analyst, (650) 286-3220, nonprofitfunding@fostercity.org

The City Council is pleased to announce that it will be accepting applications for nonprofit funding in Fiscal Year 2024-2025, beginning Monday, June 3, 2024, at 8 a.m. To be considered, eligible organizations must apply by Wednesday, July 3, 2024, at 5 p.m. Interested applicants may visit the City’s website to apply: www.fostercity.org/nonprofitfunding.

Each year, the City Council sets aside funds to support local nonprofit agencies that operate programs and services that benefit the Foster City community, and that the City would otherwise be unable to provide. Funding levels are determined annually by the City Council.

Applicants are invited to appear during the Public Comment period at any regular City Council meeting between Monday, July 15, and Monday, August 19, 2024. Applicants will be given three minutes to briefly provide an overview of their organization and how nonprofit funding would benefit the Foster City community. City staff will review the applications, and the City Council will make funding recommendations that will be presented for consideration at a future City Council meeting.
