Spring Grant Cycle NOW OPEN
Unity Gardens awards grants up to $1,000 for conservation landscaping projects in Anne Arundel County, Maryland. These grants are available to qualified nonprofit groups such as neighborhoods, places of worship, schools, scout troops, community organizations and more. Grant applications are accepted in the spring (January 15-March 1) and the fall (June 15-August 1).
We prefer that organizations apply using our online grant application. To avoid surprises, please download a copy of the application in advance so you can prepare all the materials you need once you begin completing the online form. You will be asked to upload a Project Description, Proposed Budget, and Impact Statement.
Please read through the information on the page below, as it contains answers to most people’s questions. If you still have questions, you many email Joni at unitygardensaa@gmail.com.
