Last month on Tuesday, Aug. 11, the Grand Terrace City Council approved a Community Benefit Fund Grant Program (CBF) and allocated $25,000 to be used to issue grants to support local youth programs, community events, community event fee waivers and as an economic development tool for small business. A press release issued by the City Manager's office states that organizations can apply for grants, up to $2,000 per grant. Applications are accepted year-round until all grant proceeds are awarded. Those interested may visit City Hall for more information. According to the release, the council established the Community Benefit Fund "to foster successful partnerships with community organizations committed to support programs that enhance the quality of life for businesses and residents of Grand Terrace." The City Council also requested staff return within six months to evaluate the CBF program.
