Charleston Grants Boost Tourism and Community

Charleston’s city government is dropping two big grants to fuel community and tourism projects—think of it as the city reinvesting in what matters most. The State Accommodations Tax Grant targets tourism initiatives like festivals and events designed to draw visitors, while the Community Assistance Funding Program supports local nonprofits tackling education, health, youth, and family needs—like food banks and illness support groups. City Councilman Mike Seekings says these grants help fill gaps the city can’t always cover, citing past winners like the Lowcountry Food Bank. Applications are open now—with a deadline of July 10 at 5 PM—and there’s a free workshop on June 12 at City Hall to help you apply right. Don’t miss your shot to get funded.
