Description
The Vermont Housing and Conservation Board (VHCB) provides annual Organizational Development Grants to nonprofit organizations developing affordable housing and conservation projects in Vermont. The grants help cover some of the costs associated with developing these projects, supporting both regional groups already actively involved in VHCB project development and new organizations beginning this work.
The program connects organizational support with VHCB’s broader goal of providing long-term benefits to Vermonters. Applicants must demonstrate that the work supported will have a lasting effect, secured through deed restrictions or other mechanisms. The program therefore supports the organizational work behind housing and conservation initiatives as part of VHCB’s commitment to enduring benefits.
