County Council Seeking Applicants for Grants Advisory Group

The Montgomery County Council is seeking applicants for its Grants Advisory Group for Fiscal Year 2019, according to a news release.

The volunteer community panel will review grant applications and advise the Council on proposals received from the non-profit community.

Letters of interest from applicants must by Nov. 3 at 4 p.m.

The Grants Advisory Group is expected to be announced in December and will be asked to report to the Council by the end of April 2018.

Panel members will need to attend training sessions and review relevant materials during late January and February. Applications will be reviewed for groups requesting grants between February and April and the advisory group will provide the Council with written comments on each of the grant proposals.

The workload varies based on the number of applications received and panel members appointed.

To qualify for a position, applicants for the advisory group may not be employees of  a nonprofit group applying for Council grant funding. Applications, however, will be accepted from board members and from members of panels reviewing Community Development Block Grants or Community Service Grants.

Interested applicants living or working in the County should submit their letter of interest with a resume to: Council President Roger Berliner, Montgomery County Council, 100 Maryland Avenue, Rockville, MD 20850 or via email to County.Council@montgomerycountymd.gov.
