Port Houston’s 2022 Community Grants Program opens February 1

Port Houston announces its 2022 Community Grants Program application cycle opens on Tuesday, February 1.

The Community Grants Program focuses on investing resources into meaningful projects and programs that enhance our local communities, while advancing Port Houston’s mission and vision. This year’s program awards are budgeted to total $325,000.

Interested organizations should submit brief Letters of Interest (LOI) to Port Houston starting February 1, and the LOI forms can be found at https://porthouston.com/community-outreach/grantsprogram/ .

Port Houston will review each LOI to determine whether the proposed project meets the 2022 Community Grant Program’s guidelines and parameters. Each organization that submits an LOI meeting these guidelines will be invited to complete a full grant application.

Recipients of 2021 grants awarded by the Port Commission Community Relations Committee included Target Hunger and its “Community Container Gardens” project, the Houston Tool Bank and its “Clean Up and Beautification Tool Lending” program, and Community Family Centers and its “Improving the Health of the East End Workforce” program.

Port Houston looks forward to building on the success of first two years of the Community Grants Program, and continue supporting meaningful projects and programs that enhance our local communities and region!
