Invest STL: Small Dollars Action Fund
A new cycle of the Small Dollars Action Fund will open on Wednesday, April 8th. This small grant opportunity offers neighborhood-based groups (such as associations, block units, and informal collectives) in eligible areas up to $2,000 for resident-led, place-based activities.
The fund was designed to support activities that create meaningful connections between neighbors—whether that’s a block party, a neighborhood cleanup, printing fliers, or producing neighborhood swag. You can view a map of previously funded actions here.
