Discretionary Funds – Information Session

Are you interested in an information session where we would walk you through the process of how to apply for our Discretionary Funds?

First 5 Butte County has allocated a percentage of annual revenue as a Discretionary Fund. Proposed projects are to be in mini-grants (up to $2,500), or mid-sized grants (one time, and up to $75,000). The purpose of these funds is to allow the Commission flexibility to consider and respond to needs and opportunities that arise during the budget year that are consistent with the goals as described in the Strategic Plan. For more information about Discretionary Funds refer to
Funding on this website.

The level of interest will determine whether or not we offer an information session. If you are interested, or have questions, contact Anna Dove at: 538-5281 or adove@buttecounty.net.
