​OES is excited to announce the launch of this year’s GCP Seeds of Change Open Call Grant Round! With 34 projects underway or completed and investments of over $350,000 so far, this upcoming round will continue the momentum as we bring the Green Cincinnati Plan to life!

 

New for this cycle:

• Potential applicants can review successful past GCP SOC projects via the Seeds of Change Storymap just published. This will give great insights on what has been successful over the past two years across the city.

• A priority will be placed on projects that activate focus areas of the Green Cincinnati Plan that have received less GCP SOC funding to date including Buildings & Energy, Mobility, Resilience & Climate Adaptation, and Zero Waste. We are especially excited to see resident-driven efforts in your neighborhoods that relate to the strategies in these focus areas during this round.

 

An Info Session will be held on April 2^nd 5-6PM. Register here. Applications are due May 1^st. Funding decisions will be communicated in mid-June. Projects must be completed within one year of award. Find Grant Guidelines, application materials, and more on the website.
