(Des Moines) Representative Cindy Axne announced that her office is now accepting requests for Community Project Funding for the Fiscal Year 2023 Appropriations grants for qualified local non-profits, organizations and local governments in Iowa’s Third Congressional District.
Under guidance issued by the Appropriations Committee, each Representative can request funding for up to 15 projects in their community for Fiscal Year 2023. Additional accounts have also been added for Fiscal Year 2023, including Distance Learning and Telemedicine through the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Aging and Disability Services Programs through the Department of Health and Human Services. Projects are restricted to a limited number of federal funding streams, and only state and local governments and eligible non-profit entities are permitted to receive funding.
The Community Project Funding 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 Fiscal Year 2023 appropriations bills.
All materials for Fiscal Year 2023 Community Project Funding requests must be submitted by 11 p.m. on April 18.
Visit Rep. Axne’s website to review the guidelines established by the House Appropriations Committee and to submit a request.
