District 8 is home to incredible residents and organizations who are currently doing awesome work to make the district even better. My office believes in helping provide the tools to improve resilience, health, and connectedness in our community, and watching what folks can build with a little help. This is why I’m excited to share these grant opportunities to support the work being done across District 8. I look forward to learning, working and building together.
