Sixteen (16) neighborhood beautification projects will be awarded growSouth Neighborhood Challenge grants for the 2017-18 grant cycle totaling $110,000. More than 50 applications were submitted for the grant from a variety of community organizations including neighborhood associations, homeowner associations and “friends of” groups. Grants will fund projects from sign toppers and urban gardens to service-based projects.

Over 45 projects have received growSouth Challenge Grants since the beginning of the program. Grant award recipients receive up to $10,000 to help improve their community
