The Civic Engagement and Awareness Fund

Encouraging widespread resident engagement in our civic and public life is essential to building a more connected, cohesive community.

With that goal in mind, the Civic Engagement and Awareness Fund supports the many people and organizations who work every day to advance civic awareness and engagement in our region, including nonprofit journalism; civics education; grass-roots efforts to promote civic engagement at the neighborhood level; and promoting civic values through cultural activities, convenings and other community gatherings and activities.
