Neighborhood Association Grants
One of the ways White Plains Beautification Foundation supports the city is through our
Neighborhood Association Matching Funds Program. Any neighborhood association may
submit a request for funds to help build or maintain its gardens. Each project must be
presented in writing to the White Plains Beautification Foundation Board of Directors for
approval, indicating site, cost estimates and name of the contractor, if one is used, who will do
the work. If the project is a new one, and it is located on public property, approvals must be
secured from the appropriate government agency first.
The Foundation will reimburse the costs up to $500 for a new project or $300 to maintain an
existing garden. Each neighborhood group must submit itemized and receipted bills along with
the Request for Matching Fund Reimbursement Form. White Plains Beautification Foundation
reimburses for the cost of plant materials and will support one garden per neighborhood
association.
Requests must be submitted by November 30 of each year and for the current year only. For
