Dear Agency,

The City of Kinston is now accepting applications for grants for the Organizational Support Fund.  The Grant Application and forms are on the following links: Application and Organizational Support Guidelines

There you will find four different categories available to you.  Please choose the one that best matched the goals of your program based on the criteria given.  The categories are:

• Arts & Culture
• City Wide Community Enhancement
• Economic Development
• Human Services

COMPLETED APPLICATIONS SHOULD BE SUBMITTED ONLINE OR BROUGHT TO THE FINANCIAL AND BUDGET ADMINISTRATOR’S OFFICE, 207 EAST KING STREET, KINSTON, NC 28501 BY 5 P.M.  MARCH 31st. SUBMITTALS RECEIVED AFTER THAT TIME WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.  THE DEADLINE IS FIRM.

Having received an Organizational Support grant in the past does NOT guarantee a grant in successive years.  The current economic situation underlines the tough decisions we must make.  Grants will be prioritized based on goals and mission of the City of Kinston.

Thank you for what you do for the citizens of Kinston.  Should you have questions please call Debra Thompson, City Clerk, at 252-939-3115.
