Matching Grants

Matching Grants help nurture the development of innovative ideas within the community. You do not need to be an official 501(c)3. Grants of up to $500 are available and you must also raise matching funds from another source. 

This opportunity is designed for smaller organizations which rely heavily on volunteers to carry out their work. Every organization must meet the criteria of benefiting the people of Richfield. Whether it is athletics, arts, academics or basic human needs, we want to make it easier for people to participate fully in life in Richfield.

Matching Grant applications for 2025 are now closed.
