The Solana Beach City Council approved a total of $61,500 in allocations of Community Grants Program funding to 14 local nonprofits during its June 18 meeting.<\/p>\n
The program, which launched in 2004, is designed to help support nonprofits that benefit the Solana Beach community with their programming.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith City support, these nonprofits are able to provide meaningful services that strengthen, uplift, and connect residents,\u201d read a city news release that announced the results of this year\u2019s application process. \u201cDemand for the program has steadily grown over time, with more and more organizations applying each cycle.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nineteen applicants asked the city for $107,500 for the 2025-26 fiscal year. Representatives from most of them made presentations to the council earlier in June, detailing how they would use the funding. Council members then decided how to divide the available funding among the applicants.<\/p>\n
North Coast Repertory Theatre received $6,000, the largest allocation to any single organization, to support a youth theater program.<\/p>\n
Several others received $5,000 each, including Boys & Girls Clubs of Northwest San Diego, California Western School of Law, Casa De Amistad, La Colonia Community Foundation, Order of Malta Clinic of San Diego, Pathways to Citizenship, Solana Beach Backpacks for Kids Inc., Solana Beach Community Connections, Solana Beach Civic & Historical Society, and Jaliscience Folkloric Academy.<\/p>\n
Assistance League of Rancho San Dieguito and the Community Resource Center received $2,000 each, and Taking Inspired Action Solana received $1,500.<\/p>\n
The funding came from $35,000 in the city\u2019s general fund, $15,000 from EDCO and the rest covered by the city\u2019s public arts reserve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Solana Beach City Council approved a total of $61,500 in allocations of Community Grants Program funding to…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":24875,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5134],"tags":[5229,1582,276,7350,7807,3549,7264,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-27672","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-diego","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-california","11":"tag-del-mar-times","12":"tag-del-mar-times-news","13":"tag-san-diego","14":"tag-sandiego","15":"tag-united-states","16":"tag-united-states-of-america","17":"tag-unitedstates","18":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","19":"tag-us","20":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114773498426903219","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27672","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27672"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27672\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24875"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27672"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27672"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27672"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
