Small Community Grants Trust Program

The Small Community Grants Trust program funds 501c3 organizations that work with and for the people of Boston, providing immediate and direct impact in a number of program areas.

What are the small community grants? 

The Trust Office manages over 300 individual trusts, many of which are for a very specific purpose and generate a small amount of money each year. We’ve grouped a number of these small trusts into the Small Community Grants Program so that we can honor the intentions of the donors by efficiently granting the funds to Bostonians.

Fall / Winter Round 2024

The Application for the Small Grants Fall / Winter 2024 Round has been closed.

The City of Boston is using a new application system for grant programs. While you can preview the application without logging in, applicants will need to create an organization profile on WizeHive in order to apply for a Small Community Grant. The profile is easily editable and will help streamline our application process. The City Grantmaking About Us page will guide you through creating a profile. This page includes instructions for creating a City of Boston supplier ID. If you have questions about WizeHive or need assistance with your profile please reach out to the Grants team at grants@boston.gov, subject line "WizeHive profile".
