Community organizations and individuals interested in requesting sponsorship from the City must complete a Community Sponsorship Application. Applicants can receive up to $50,000 per City fiscal year (July 1 - June 30), contingent on funding availability. 

Deadline to apply for fiscal year 2025-2026 has closed.

The purpose of the Community Sponsorship program is to establish a standardized process for sponsorship awards to qualifying non-profit community organizations, youth athletic groups/organizations, educational groups, or individuals, that provide a public benefit for the City’s residents.
