Grants Administration

Overview

The Department of Community and Economic Development works to fund City improvements through competitive grant opportunities. Applying and obtaining grants supports the Delaware and Lehigh Riverscompletion of projects identified by Easton's Comprehensive Plan, as well projects identified in other plans (such as the Waterfront or Active Transportation Plan). Easton's DCED works to ensure that Easton's residents and visitors benefit from competitive opportunities offered by private and governmental fundersincluding the County of Northampton, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and Federal government.

In some cases, we may be able to support external partners (such as developers of non-profits serving Easton) who require local government support or that need assistance with grant preparation. We have included some of our successful applications below for review.

Should you have any questions about grant administration, or would need assistance in navigating your own process, please contact Olivia Bamford. You can also call 610-250-6725. Please note that the DCED does not have any active grants available for individuals or businesses at this time.
