The City of Mission is committed to the preservation and renewal of neighborhoods. The
Neighborhood Grant Program provides up to $500 to help resident-based groups
build and preserve community through various programs and activities. 

Many neighborhoods host ice cream socials, block parties, and other large-scale events with the help of Neighborhood Grant funding.  The funds can also be used to start neighborhood newsletters, email lists, and sponsor other community-building activities.

10 grants are available for the 2010 calendar year; they are typically awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
