Aspen, CO volunteer grant committees

The city of Aspen is transforming its grants program to bring more consistency, transparency, and equity to the process. The city is replacing its standard four-person committee with three new committees consisting entirely of volunteers. Each committee will be focused on specific grant applications: arts & culture, community programs, and health & human services. Each committee will review their applications and make recommendations on what organizations to fund and what amounts to grant.
