Local lawmakers accepting requests for legislative grants
Reps. Boylans' and Knight's committees evaluating grant requests, making recommendations
Two local lawmakers are reminding residents about state legislative grant opportunities.
Representative Jason Knight (D-Dist. 67, Barrington and Warren) and Representative Jennifer Boylan (D-Dist. 66, Barrington and East Providence) have called for the grants to support the work of non-partisan, non-profit organizations providing benefit to the community.
In an effort to bring transparency and fairness to the process, both representatives have given their district committees the responsibility of gathering and evaluating grant requests and making recommendations.
Any organizations that want to be considered for one of this year’s legislative grants should send a brief (one- or two-page) letter that includes their name, their organization, contact information, the organization’s mission, and how the grant would help and/or be used.
For a District 67 grant, send requests to Heather McNamara at heather.mcnamara@hillandnowlton.comby April 18.
For a District 66 grant, send requests to the District Committee for RI House 66 at DistCommHouse66@gmail.com by April 30.
