Purpose
Eligibility Criteria
Applicants must satisfy ALL eligibility requirements as follows:
Be a unit of government or charitable organization with current registration from the Office of the Secretary of State of South Carolina;
Be located in and serving the residents of Greenville County;
Show the ability to collect the required matching funds.
Funding Range, Restrictions + Match
Up to $3,000.00 and a 2:1 (applicant to MAC) match per award. Applicants who have outstanding MAC project support activities or reports are ineligible to apply for funds until all previously awarded grant requirements have been completed and approved. No more than two grants may be awarded to an applicant within one fiscal/calendar year. A single project cannot be funded from two separate quarterly grants. Project support grant applications from organizations receiving General Operating Support (GOS) funding will be given lower priority – these GOS organizations are encouraged instead to consider being a collaborating partner in a project grant application made by a non-GOS organization.
2021 Deadlines
Applications must be postmarked or delivered to the MAC office by 5 PM of the deadline date. If the deadline occurs on a holiday or weekend, the next business day becomes the default deadline date. No late, faxed or emailed applications may be accepted.
