A matching grant requires the community or project team to contribute resources such as donated funds, materials, or volunteer time in order to unlock the grant award. Everyone deserves access to a quality park, and Park Pride is committed to advancing equitable investment across our service area.
Matching requirements may be waived for qualified applicants in historically disinvested communities, as determined by data from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Since 2020, Park Pride has directed over $10 million in grant funding to Friends of the Park groups in historically disinvested neighborhoods in the City of Atlanta and unincorporated DeKalb County. We remain deeply committed to this priority.

Read articleA new Interior Department policy routes every grant and cooperative agreement of $50,000 or more through two political appointees for manual review. The result is a backlog of roughly 1,400 grants and $362 million in delayed funding — up from fewer than 10 two years ago.
