Grantees will implement quick-action projects that help communities become more livable by improving public places; transportation; housing; digital connections; and more, with an emphasis on the needs of adults ages 50 and older.
Five communities across Minnesota are getting a boost in their work to become more livable for residents of all ages through the AARP Community Challenge Grants.
Each year, AARP works in partnership with local leaders, organizations, and dedicated residents to help boost their community’s work to become more livable for residents of all ages. As part of that effort, AARP is excited to announce the largest investment of grant dollars to date through the AARP Community Challenge grant program. More than $3.8 million in quick-action grants are being distributed to 343 projects across all 50 states, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
