The goal of the program is to fund neighborhood projects and events, which are planned and carried out by neighborhood associations, mobile home park residents’ associations and neighborhood groups within Sunnyvale. 

The program offers grants of up to $1000 per association or group, which must be applied for in advance and correspond to at least one of four categories: 

• Increasing communication among neighbors
• Building bridges between cultural groups
• Improving the physical condition of the neighborhood
• Enhancing neighborhood pride and identity

Creative ideas for projects and events are encouraged!  Examples of some grant fund uses are: start-up funds for neighborhood association newsletters or directories, clean-up and beautification activities, block parties, and cultural awareness events. 

Although the program is open to all neighborhood groups, priority for approval is given to registered Sunnyvale neighborhood associations, mobile home park resident associations, and neighborhood groups currently applying to become a registered Sunnyvale neighborhood association.
