A dynamic investment in the people, places, and experiences that make Delaware County shine.

With $250,000 in funding available, grants ranging from $5,000 to $25,000 support bold ideas that attract visitors, energize main streets, enhance community spaces, celebrate arts and culture, and drive overnight stays.
Designed to spark economic growth and create memorable visitor experiences, the program encourages collaboration among communities and partners with local municipalities and organizations through a 25% match to maximize impact and bring big ideas to life.
