Cottage City Facade Improvement Project - Prince George's County

How to Apply for Assistance

BALTIMORE OFFICE PROJECT APPLICATION

Applications may be submitted anytime, but are reviewed on two deadlines each year - in April and October.

Before submitting your application, please contact either Irene Poulsen, NDC Program Manager, ipoulsen@ndc-md.org or 410 233 9686 x 105 or Kristen Humphrey, khumphrey@ndc-md.org or 410 233 9686 x 103.

They will help you to assess whether there is any preliminary tasks that your organization should complete before being considered for project assistance.

The following criteria will be used to evaluate project applications:

  • The need for the project in the community and appropriateness of the project location.
  • The degree to which the project is supported by community residents and/or members of the applicant organization.
  • Degree to which the applicant organization has secured site control, made general budget projections, and planned for fundraising.
  • The sponsoring organization’s commitment to participate in the planning, implementation and ongoing stewardship of the project.

Once NDC accepts a project, it is our role to recruit the necessary volunteer(s), develop the work outline and schedule and facilitate volunteer and community/client meetings.

A nominal administrative fee (usually $200.00 - $600.00) is requested on all projects located in Baltimore City and is assessed on a sliding scale based on the size of the project and the applicant organization’s ability to pay.  Note: projects outside of Baltimore City not covered by our Prince George's County office may be assessed a higher project fee.
