Grants Fund Local Projects in New Jersey

Posted on 01/01/26 by AARP Bulletin

AARP Community Challenge grant applications are open until March.

The grants to nonprofits and local governments are aimed at making communities more livable by funding projects that create outdoor gathering places, improve street safety, help residents age in place or spur other improvements, according to Fabiana LoPiccolo-Stewart, program lead for AARP New Jersey.

The goal is to fund quick improvements and lay the groundwork for longer-term projects.

Check aarp.org/communitychallenge for more information.
