The West Harlem Development Corporation (WHDC) is pleased to announce the 2021 Community Benefits Grants cycle (2021 CBG).
Awarding two million dollars to 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations (NPOs), will begin today, June 22.
The application is open to NPOs headquartered in Manhattan Community District 9 (MCD9), as well as NPOs located outside of MCD9 whose projects demonstratively serve at least 75% of MCD9 residents.
WHDC intends to:
- Focus on programs that have a deep and significant impact on our community by supporting efforts to protect and preserve affordable housing,
- Support and promote equity in the arts,
- Support our youth and seniors,
- Help spur economic/workforce development throughout the district, and
support our community as it emerges from the pandemic.
WHDC recognizes that the pandemic adversely affected our community as much or more than others, and we seek to work with local partners to continue towards an equitable path to recovery.
We are excited to open the CBG 2021 round of grant opportunities and begin a review of the many programs and projects that will provide responsive relief for the urgent ongoing needs in support of our West Harlem community.
More information, including critical dates and detailed CBG Guidelines, can be found on WHDC’s website, www.westharlemdc.org
