Summary
Albany County officials said the Legislature and County Executive's Office supported dozens of nonprofits and school districts with more than $725,000 in grants over the past 12 months and announced the availability of another round of grant opportunities; details and deadlines are posted on the county website.
The Albany County Legislature, together with the County Executive's Office, said the county supported dozens of nonprofit organizations and school districts with more than $725,000 in grant awards over the past 12 months and announced that a new round of grant opportunities will be offered.
The announcement, made during a meeting, said the past grants backed programs in women's health, anti‑smoking campaigns, substance‑use interventions and anti‑bullying efforts. County officials said the county will focus on different priority areas at different times of the year and urged interested organizations to consult the county website for application openings, deadlines and eligibility requirements.
A staff member for the Albany County Legislature described the funding as supporting programs “that are making a difference in our communities” and said the link to application details appears on the county website and in the meeting video description. The staff member encouraged organizations to engage with the legislature and follow official social media channels for updates.
Officials did not provide a breakdown of the $725,000 by program, list specific grant recipients, or specify exact opening dates and application deadlines during the remarks; those details were described as available on the county website.
