2018 Keep Montgomery County Beautiful Beautification Grant Program

Purpose Keep Montgomery County Beautiful (KMCB) established the Beautification Grant in order to promote volunteerism and community beautification within Montgomery County.

Eligibility: Funds are available on a competitive basis within Montgomery County (see list of eligible groups below). Funding can be used to:  Purchase plants/bulbs: shrubs, trees, perennials (once planted, perennials grow back every year) and annuals (die after one season). Requests for potting soil and/or compost, if accompanying plant purchases, will be considered. Native plants, perennials and drought- tolerant plants are preferred. See Appendix B for list of suggested native and drought- tolerant plants.  Purchase community garden materials: Lumber/hardware for raised flower/vegetable beds, Vegetable seeds, soil, mulch, fertilizer.  Purchase materials for graffiti abatement: Paint and painting supplies (brushes, rollers, pans, etc.) *Hand tools and power tools are not eligible for grant funds. The beautification grant review committee is responsible for determining the eligibility of all requested items.

Eligible groups include:  KMCB Adopt-An-Area groups  Community Pride Cleanup Supply Trailer groups  Groups posting projects on the United Way’s Volunteer Connection website. The project posted on the website must be the same project for which you use the grant.  Day of Action/Make a Difference Day/ Global Youth Service Day groups through the United Way (this includes corporate volunteers)  501(c)3s  Montgomery County Solid Waste District Grant Recipients (MCSWD). KMCB Grant must be used to enhance previous grant received from MCSWD. An example would be plants purchased through this grant are placed into recycled content planters or used in recycled content raised beds purchased from a Montgomery County grant.

Beautification Subcommittee will have the final decision as to eligibility of all grant applications.

Funding & Funding Decisions Maximum grant funding is $1,000. Funding decisions are made by the Beautification Subcommittee of the Keep Montgomery County Beautiful Board, based upon rating criteria. Partial funding may be approved. Award announcements will be made in April, 2018. No monetary match is required.

Plants/Bulbs If grant funding is received for plants, a purchase order will be issued to an approved provider(s) of your choice for the amount of the grant award. The list of approved providers is in Appendix A. The purchase order will be restricted to the purchases of plants and plant materials as defined above. The grant recipient is responsible for shopping at the approved provider of their choice. The grant recipient will receive a copy of the purchase order. The purchase order must be presented to the approved provider at the time of purchase. All funds under the purchase order must be used by October 31, 2018. The approved provider will send a detailed invoice to Montgomery County Solid Waste District for payment.

Other Grant Eligible Items If your group receives funding for eligible materials other than garden center items (Lumber, paint, paint supplies, etc.), KMCB and the Montgomery County Solid Waste District will facilitate the purchase and delivery of items.

Rating Criteria  Need & Impact on Neighborhood/Area  Maintenance & Sustainability  Level of Community/Volunteer Involvement (higher value given if youth volunteers from the community participate in the project )  Detailed Plan  Groups must demonstrate a minimum 20% volunteer hour match, valued at $10 per hour. Example: $1,000 in grant funding = 20 volunteer hours ($200 at $10 per hour)

Approved projects will receive an announcement letter followed by an award Letter. We encourage groups to use these letters when seeking additional donations. Grant funding is typically made available approximately one month after award notification.

Accountability & Reporting Requirements Grant recipients will be required to submit a project summary report evaluating the project within 60 days of project completion or no later than November 9, 2018.
