MetroWest Boston Visitors Bureau accepting apps for mini grants

 

The MetroWest Boston Visitors Bureau has announced that its annual mini grant program is accepting applications. Designed for marketing and advertising projects that will promote tourism in MetroWest, grants from $1,000 to $10,000 are available. The Bureau will consider applications for projects devoted to marketing a MetroWest event, attraction, restaurant, shop, or cultural or recreational offering.

The applicant does not need to be a 501(c)3 charitable organization, but must be based in one of the 19 towns
that comprise MetroWest or be devoted to attracting potential visitors to those 19 towns.

Grant applications can be submitted at www.bit.ly/FY25minigrant and will be reviewed on a rolling basis until December 1.

For questions, or to discuss your project idea prior to submitting an application, please contact Executive Director Stacey
David at sdavid@metrowestvisitors.org.
