MCFSC Fire Safety Micro-Grant Program

2022 Fire Safety Micro-Grant Program

MCFSC is launching a Micro-Grant funding opportunity to support Neighborhood Fire Safe Councils (NFSCs) and fire agencies in acheiving their fire safety goals throughout Mendocino County. NFSCs and local fire agencies are key to advancing wildfire preparedness and resilliency throughout the County. With this grant opportunity, MCFSC hopes to stimulate neighborhood involvement,  improve coordination within and between  communities, and build capacity for NFSCs and fire agencies.
