PRESS RELEASE (03-21-2024)
MACON COUNTY MANAGER'S OFFICE
Macon County Funding Pool Accepting Applications
Macon County non-profit organizations have until 5:00p.m. on April 26, 2024, to apply for county funds allocated in the current fiscal year budget, through the Macon County Community Funding Pool (CFP). Application forms and instructions are available at the Macon County website, www.maconnc.org.
Organizations applying for CFP funds must provide financial statements such as budgets and federal tax-exempt reports, organization goals and objectives, and program/service descriptions. Questions regarding the application may be directed to Bobbie Contino at 828-342-7872. Groups not incorporated as non-profits may enlist an established non-profit to serve as their fiscal agent.
Collaborative agency proposals are encouraged to leverage limited funding and to share resources. The Community Funding Pool was established to help the Macon County Board of Commissioners allocate tax-generated funds to local non-profits in a fair and efficient way. The CFP Task Force is composed of citizens chosen by the Board of Commissioners to consider applications and make recommendations to the Board, who make final funding decisions. The Community Funding Pool is a separate entity from the Macon County Community Foundation.
