2024 Event Mini Grants

The BID offers a variety of mini-grants that are focused, with a simpler process, to support members. 

Event grant funding is $500 per project. The grant is to be used to support a Grand Opening or an Anniversary Celebration or a Collaborative Harbor Centre Event. Each business may only apply for one grant per project per year. 

The grant will be a rolling application and the funding is available on a first come first serve basis. 

Grants will be reviewed every other month by the BID Major Investment Committee. For this grant opportunity, $5,000 is budgeted in 2024.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Kristin Bahr via email kristin@harborcentre.com or phone (920) 234-8180. 

Sincerely, 

Kristin Bahr
Harbor Centre BID Member Services Manager
