Calling all Bushwick block associations, community gardens, public school students, and volunteer groups!

The grant application period is now open for the 2017 “Love Your Block” grant, the beloved New York City beautification and cleanup program that provides small organizations with a $1,000 cash grant and access to a plethora of city services to implement neighborhood improvement projects.

From now until Monday, November 7, anyone with an idea for a project and an eligible group to work with can apply to the public-private “adopt-a-block” grant program to try and earn $1,000 cash funding for an initiative.
