City of Minnetonka Now Accepting Applications for 2014 Nonprofit Funding

A total of $23,000 was allocated in 2013.

The City of Minnetonka is now accepting requests for a limited amount of nonprofit funding for 2014.

The city will use the following criteria to determine who will get the money:

  • Community-wide benefit: meets and important city-wide need and serves a proportionately high number of Minnetonka residents;
  • Access to funding: reasonable efforts must be made to raise funds from other sources; and
  • Cost effectiveness: services are not duplicated and volunteers and in-kind contributions are already used to reduce costs.
According to the city, in addition to funds for affordable housing, the city provided social services allocations of $23,000, spread among several agencies last year.

Applications are due by Sept. 13, 2013. For information about the city's policy regarding nonprofit funding or for an application, call 952-939-8200.
