Congresswoman Bush Announces Applications Open for Fiscal Year 2025 Community Project Funding
APPLY HERE: Deadline for submission is April 26, 2024
Washington D.C. (Apr. 12, 2024) — The Office of Congresswoman Cori Bush (MO-01) is excited to announce that it is now accepting Community Project Funding requests from Missouri’s First District to submit to the House Appropriations Committee for Fiscal Year 2025.
Community Project Funding allows Members of Congress the opportunity to request direct funding for projects that address issues and benefit our community directly. Previously, our office has funded various projects, ranging between $70 thousand to $5 million, across the district addressing issues such as community safety, homelessness prevention, health care, infrastructure, environmental justice, education, and economic development.
“I am proud to announce that my office is now accepting community project funding applications,” said Congresswoman Cori Bush. “Over my tenure, I have had the honor of being able to deliver over $41 million for community organizations working to save and improve lives in Missouri’s First District. These projects deliver critical funding for investments in public safety, homelessness prevention, health care, education, economic development and more. I strongly encourage all our grassroots organizations, nonprofits, and local governments to apply for this funding. I am excited to review these applications and select projects that will continue to invest in the health, safety, and well-being of our community.”

Congressional offices are still awaiting formal guidance from House leadership, however, in previous years, each Member of Congress could submit 15 projects from their district. Each request must include demonstrated community support, through either letters of support, press articles, resolutions, and/or relevant links to information online.
To prepare for the FY 2025 cycle’s submission process, the Office of Congresswoman Cori Bush will be hosting three informational webinars to help organizations navigate this process and answer any questions.
