California Income Security and Social Services Grants

The City of Jurupa Valley's Community Service Grant Program aims to support local organizations that demonstrate effectiveness in fundraising and volunteer service for community programs, with a focus on fostering self-sufficiency. The program provides mini-grant funding for projects that benefit residents within Jurupa Valley, encouraging organizations to develop stable private funding sources and discouraging over-reliance on City financial assistance for ongoing operations. This aligns with the City Council's goal to support robust community programs while promoting sustainable financial practices among local non-profits. The target beneficiaries of this grant program are the residents of Jurupa Valley, who will benefit from social welfare, educational, charitable, athletic, cultural, or recreational programs. Non-profits awarded grants, up to $5,000 each, are expected to implement projects or programs that directly serve and improve the general community. The overarching impact goal is to enhance the quality of life and well-being for Jurupa Valley residents through diverse and beneficial community initiatives, ultimately strengthening the social fabric of the city. The program prioritizes organizations with current 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status that engage in activities for a public purpose within Jurupa Valley. Funding is specifically prohibited for certain uses, including salaries, scholarships, debt satisfaction, religious or political purposes, and mass mailings that violate the Political Reform Act. Eligibility also excludes organizations where City Council members are on the board, those involved in lawsuits against the City, or those engaging in prohibited or adverse activities to the community's health and safety. These restrictions ensure that grants are directed towards transparent, community-focused, and legally compliant initiatives. Expected outcomes include the successful implementation of various community-benefiting programs and projects, leading to tangible improvements in the social, educational, and cultural landscape of Jurupa Valley. While specific measurable results are not detailed, the emphasis on organizations demonstrating effectiveness in fundraising and volunteer services suggests an expectation of program sustainability and community engagement. The City Council's strategic priority, as adopted in Resolution No. 2014-48, is to support programs that benefit residents and promote the City, ensuring that all funding contributes to a public purpose.
