13 Community-Lead Projects – $9,700 Awarded. Let’s Celebrate!

FutureHeights joyfully invites you to an evening of celebration for our 2022 Neighborhood Mini-Grant Award Recipients. Our program offers funding up twice annually (Spring and Fall) to support community-building initiatives, projects, and programs in Cleveland Heights and University Heights. Groups can apply for up to $1,000 to begin or sustain their projects.

On Wednesday, December 7th from 6pm-7:30pm on Zoom, we welcome you to hear from our 2022 recipients, learn about their projects, and feel as inspired as we do about the incredible work our community members are doing to make the Heights a unique, welcoming, and wonderful place to live.

In 2022, we received a record number of applications and were thrilled to be able to support 13 projects. Please join us in congratulating the following groups:

**Technical notes for our event: We will be using a standard Zoom Meeting format and so we have a few requests and recommendations. First, we ask that all guests mute themselves and turn their cameras off. Second, we suggest that our guests adjust their settings to “Speaker View” and/or “Hide Non-Video Participants” so they can most easily see who’s speaking. More tech details available here.

We will be recording this Celebration to share on the FutureHeights YouTube page.
