Cityworks is a neighborhood-based, matching grant program that has been developed to encourage new and creative efforts in partnership with small citizen groups such as block clubs, street clubs and resident organizations for eligible activities.
Cityworks awards grants of up to $3,000 to block clubs and other neighborhood groups for projects that improve the quality of life within Cleveland neighborhoods. These grants require dollar-for-dollar, matching contribution of cash, volunteer labor, or donated services (i.e.: a $3,000 grant would require $3,000 in matching funds, labor, or services).
Applicant Information
Cityworks Manual and Application Form
Applications for the Cityworks Program are accepted from neighborhood-based organizations of residents or small businesses.

An applicant organization cannot discriminate in admission of members, and must demonstrate active participation of neighborhood residents.
Awards are not made to individuals, single businesses, religious organizations, government agencies, City departments, or citywide groups.
