Approximately $2.5 million in funding is available to eligible nonprofits through the CPG program. Local nonprofit organizations that provide community-based program initiatives to help foster the growth and development of people and communities in Prince George’s County are encouraged to apply.

“Our vision is to grow pride and sustainability in our Prince George’s County community by improving the quality of life for our residents,” said Alsobrooks. “Nonprofits are such critical partners for our government, helping serve and support our residents.”
