Communication Funds

This year, Neighborhood Associations within the SE Uplift district can apply for up to $750 in Communication Funds for projects that generate awareness of and participation in neighborhood activities and events, provide residents with information about local issues, and build relationships between neighbors. 

To release 2024 funds to your NA, please follow the steps below:

1) PREPARE: Discuss with your NA board how it wants to spend up to $750 on Communications in 2024 and determine the costs for those efforts. Also gather receipts that document how your NA spent its 2023 Communication Funds. 

2) UPLOAD: Submit all outstanding 2023 meeting minutes here.

3) SUBMIT YOUR 2023 REPORT WITH YOUR 2024 PROPOSAL: Complete a short report describing how you used your 2023 Communication Funds and submit receipts for those expenses. Then describe in a few sentences how your Neighborhood Association intends to spend its $750 2024 Communications funds and complete the budget sheet.  

To access the 2024 Communication Funds, you must:

1.      Meet with your board and decide to accept your Communication Funds.

2.     Submit a Communication Funds 2024 Application + 2023 Report detailing how you plan to use the funds to your board for discussion and approval.

3.  Submit receipts via the application along with an updated budget (included in the application) reflecting how 2023 Communication Funds were spent. 

 4. Email your signed W9 form, or EIN, to alex@seuplift.org.
