The City of Bellevue’s Match Program will end in December 2023. As of March 31, 2023 applications for this program are no longer being accepted.
Created in 1997, Bellevue’s Neighborhood Match Program partnered with residents to fund and build small projects that improve neighborhoods.
The program provided matching grants of up to $10,000 per project for small-scale neighborhood improvements. For every dollar awarded by the city, the neighborhood provided an equal or greater match consisting of money, professional services, materials and/or volunteer labor.
The program spurred more than 200 improvement projects. In the process of working together on improvements, residents connected with their neighbors, learned about neighborhood history and built a stronger sense of pride and identity in their community. Projects included new entrance signs, landscaping, neighborhood art, play equipment and amenities.
