(WASHINGTON, DC) – Today, Representative Conor Lamb (PA-17) announced that his office is accepting requests for Community Project Funding (CPF) for the Fiscal Year 2023 (FY23) Appropriations grants for qualified local non-profits, organizations and local governments in PA-17.
“After successfully securing more than $4.2 million last year to invest in high-impact local projects, I hope that more communities will look at this opportunity to leverage federal investment and apply for funding this year. I will work to secure every dollar possible for western Pennsylvania,” said Lamb.
The House Appropriations Committee intends to fund community projects on a limited basis in the FY23 Appropriations bills. Therefore, CPF requests that provide a significant public good and have wide community support are more likely to be included. The CPF request process is highly competitive, and applicants should be advised that not every request submitted by a Member of Congress will be included in the FY23 appropriations bills.
Only eligible CPF requests that meet all the guidelines established by the Appropriations Committee will be accepted and considered. Visit Lamb’s website to review the guidelines established by the House Appropriations Committee and to submit a request. For-profit entities are not eligible for CPF grants.
All materials for FY23 Community Project Funding requests must be submitted by 5:00 PM on Friday, April 15, 2022. Late or incomplete submissions will not be considered.
