Cleveland Climate Action Fund Grant Process in 5 Simple Steps!

  1. Please download the 2016 grant application here. The joint application includes opportunities to apply for funding through Reimagining Cleveland and the Cleveland Climate Action Fund.
  2. Develop your neighborhood project idea and apply by the deadline. There are two grant cycles in 2016 — the first deadline for applications is July 8, 2016 and the second deadline is October 7, 2016.

  5. Awardees provide a detailed project report at the end of the project period.
