“Healthy Hometown” 2011 grant season almost over

Sponsored by the Louisville Center for Health Equity, the 2011 grant season for the Mayor’s Healthy Hometown Movement, which promotes healthy things like riding bikes clad in Speedos and eating non-Yum!-sponsored foods, has just a few days left for new applicants.

Via Louisvilleky.gov:

The Healthy Hometown Movement provides annual mini-grants for eligible 501 (c) 3 organizations through the External Agency Fund. The funding cycle is in accordance with the Metro fiscal year, which starts July 1 and ends June 30.
