In partnership with the County of Monterey, CFMC is managing the grant application process of $2 million from the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES). Grant requests can range from $10,000 to $100,000.
La Fundación Comunitaria del Condado de Monterey (CFMC) es el administrador del proyecto. Un río atmosférico provocó fuertes lluvias en todo el condado de Monterey, lo que provocó una ruptura del dique de Pájaro el 10 de marzo de 2023. El proyecto de ley 102 de la Asamblea de California (AB 102) asignó $20,000,000 al condado de Monterey para apoyar el alivio de inundaciones en la comunidad de Pájaro. La financiación no duplicará ni reemplazará los beneficios disponibles o recibidos a través de otros programas de asistencia existentes. Los fondos AB 102 distribuidos al Condado de Monterey se administran a través de la subvención del Programa de Alivio de Inundaciones por Tormentas Invernales 2023 de la Oficina de Servicios de Emergencia del Gobernador de California (Cal OES). Las solicitudes de solicitud de subvenciones pueden variar desde $10,000 a $100,000.
An atmospheric river brought heavy rain across Monterey County leading to a breach of the Pajaro Levee on March 10, 2023. The County has set aside $2 million of AB 102 funds for the Pajaro Community Grant Program. These funds will be divided between a variety of wide-ranging community projects, which increase the ability of the whole community to prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies and natural disasters. The goal of the Pajaro Community Grant Program is to ensure the funding is used in a way that maximizes community impact, while ensuring unduplicated performance outcomes.

Any one-time funding must be invested into an enterprise that will not require further public funding or subsidies.
