Neighborhood Purposes Grants

Neighborhood Purposes Grants (NPGs) provide NCs opportunities to develop partnerships with local 501(c)(3) nonprofits and public schools to build community and enhance neighborhoods in the City of Los Angeles. Projects and activities supported by NPGs vary widely and can include, but are not limited to:


  • The Arts

  • Beautification

  • Community Support

  • Education

  • Community Improvements


NPG-funded projects and activities must be for a public benefit and purpose, open, accessible, and free of charge to stakeholders. Grants approved by NCs exceeding $5,000 involve further review and possible City contract by the Office of the City Clerk. Visit the NC Funding Program website page on NPGs to find out more details about how 501(c)(3) nonprofits and public schools serving NC areas can apply. There are two NPG Information Packets; One for prospective applicants to help guide them in the application process, and one for NC board members outlining considerations and factors to keep in mind while evaluating NPG requests. A “Project Completion Report” template is also provided to help ensure accountability in the use of Grant funds and help demonstrate how NCs and their partners are supporting L.A. communities and stakeholders. NCs and NPG recipients are strongly encouraged to work together to complete and submit the Report at the conclusion of the project. Any questions you may have with the NPG process, please contact us at the NC Funding Program:
