Apply for a Spring 2019 QVNA Community Grant!
QVNA is accepting applications for the Spring 2019 Community Grants Program through March 1, 2019. Complete information is online at QVNA.org/grants.
Applications for grants must focus on how the project or program helps improve the quality of life of Queen Village residents.

Grant applications may be submitted for a wide range of projects and programs, including enhancing parks, gardens, playgrounds, and neighborhood safety; educational and after-school programs; clean & green projects; historic preservation; and more.
Congrats Community Grant Winners!
Four 2018 Community Grant Award recipients were announced by QVNA President Eleanor Ingersoll at the December 13th Holiday Party. A total of $10,000 was awarded.
The Geography Lady was awarded $400 for an intergenerational geography program.
Fleisher Art Memorial was awarded $1,000 for a teaching assistant to pick-up students participating in its after-school program at Nebinger for their return to home to Courtyard.
Friends of Nebinger was awarded $2,000 for Chromebooks for use by students.

Grant award decisions were based on the degree to which the proposed project meets a community need, the clarity of the project description, budget detail that reflects well-defined needs and reasonable costs, and the capacity of the applicant organization to complete the project within one year.
A sincere thanks to ALL GRANT APPLICANTS! QVNA is proud of good work being done to improve the quality of life here in Queen Village.
