Active Neighborhood Challenge

The Activated Neighborhood Challenge is a Grant Program run in partnership with the City of Lima's Neighborhood Impact Program.

These grants will support programs and activities that strengthen your neighborhood and make a measurable impact on the City of Lima/Allen County. Neighborhood Associations who have been recognized by the City of Lima and 501(c)(3) organizations located within Allen County are eligible to apply for and receive this grant, regardless of the associations or organization’s size or budget.

Activate Allen County will provide up to an additional $2,000 for selected applications through the Neighborhood Challenge and through the support of Mercy Health. For information on when the challenge will be open, deadlines, eligibility or other questions, please utilize the “Contact Us” page, or email Kayla Monfort at [email protected].
