FY24 MA04 Community Project Funding Request Form (**THIS IS AN ARCHIVED WEBSITE--NO LONGER OPEN FOR SUBMISSIONS**)
I am looking forward to serving my constituents across the Fourth District of Massachusetts and supporting Community Funding Project requests in the Fiscal Year 2024 Appropriations bill. In Fiscal Year 2023, your input helped my office identify fifteen Community Project Funding opportunities and secure $36 million in federal funds to support those projects. In order to ensure that I am hearing directly from my constituents, I have created this form to solicit Community Project Funding requests for Fiscal Year 2024. Please take the time to let me know about your Community Project Funding requests and how my office can help you.

A list of eligible accounts for Community Project Funding can be found HERE. Comprehensive guidance on project eligibility can be found HERE. If your project is selected to move forward, our office will work with you to identify the appropriate funding account; however, we encourage you to review the list of accounts to determine whether your project may be eligible for Community Project Funding in FY2024.
