Mini Grants:
Supporting Projects for Older Adults
The Annual Governor’s Conference on Aging, sponsored by the Governor's Advisory Council on Aging (GAC), supports rural communities with populations fewer than 10,000 through a mini-grant program. Designed to aid communities with limited resources in meeting the needs of older adults, these grants range from $200 to $1,000. They assist in various capacities, such as providing training materials, health equipment, kitchen supplies for meal preparation, and development of senior support services.
Funding for these mini-grants is garnered through sponsorships and a silent auction held during the annual conference, scheduled for October 1st-3rd, 2024. Projects completed with grant funds must be documented with photos and financial records, and a report to the GAC is required by year-end.
To apply, download the 2024 Mini-Grant Application form, and submit it by September 20, 2024. Mail completed applications to:
