The MMG Program awards grants bi-annually to City of Orlando non-profit organizations, neighborhood organizations and schools. Neighborhood organizations are awarded grants in increments of $500 to $5,000 for neighborhood improvement projects that enhance education, culture, public safety or physical improvements, while addressing neighborhood needs and building community pride. Tax-exempt 501(c)3 non-profit organizations and schools are awarded grants in increments of $1,000 to $10,000 and are encouraged to partner with neighborhood organizations and community partners to offer programs that engage our City's youth in constructive, adult-supervised activities during non-school hours.

The Office of Community Affairs and Human Relations provides grant applications, workshops, technical assistance, monitoring and oversight.
