The City of Longmont is seeking applications for Human Services Agency Funding from private, public, nonprofit, nongovernmental and governmental agencies that serve Longmont residents. All agencies must be legally incorporated entities in good standing.

Agencies must serve primarily low- and moderate-income Longmont residents. All agencies must be able to document that their services benefit a significant number of Longmont residents; agencies that operate on a countywide or regional basis must also demonstrate how they successfully involve the Longmont community in planning and program development to most effectively address the needs of Longmont residents.

City of Longmont funding is intended to support direct service nonsectarian programs. City human service funding does not provide start-up money to establish a new human service agency or program, or for major capital purchases or facility improvements.

Please be aware that Longmont’s human service agency funding is part of a highly competitive grant making process. Previous successful applications do not guarantee continued funding. Furthermore, please be aware that the City has seen a rapid growth in the number requests and the amount of funding requested. While the City has seen a modest growth in the amount set aside for human services funding, the amount is not growing at the same pace as the number of requests and amount requested.

Proposed programs must fall under one of six impact areas:

• Housing Stability
• Self-sufficiency and Resilience
• Food and Nutrition
• Health and Well-being
• Education and Skill Building
• Safety and Justice

All applicants must submit applications online using the city’s grant management system, Foundant, which is a collaborative grant management system shared with the City of Boulder and Boulder County.

To learn how to register or for more information, visit the City’s Human Service Agency Funding Program’s website or contact Eliberto Mendoza via email at eliberto.mendoza@longmontcolorado.gov or by phone at 303-774-3511.

Applications are due by 4 pm on Monday, August 26, 2024. Late applications will not be accepted.
