KAMM's Community Mitigation Grant

As a non-profit, KAMM offers funds for projects that promote hazard mitigation through our annual community mitigation grant fundraising. Monies from our fundraising go toward community hazard mitigation projects. Our grants are based upon how much we raise in the previous year.

KAMM’s Community Mitigation
Grant Application

KAMM will open the next application cycle in 2026 when we will be accepting new applications for the KAMM Community Mitigation Grant Program. KAMM promotes natural hazard mitigation and disaster recovery as well as public awareness of floodplain, stormwater, and emergency management.

The KAMM Grant Program offers local communities an opportunity for assistance with a mitigation project. The program allocates funds for projects that promote natural hazard mitigation and management or mitigation awareness in your community. 

Below is a list of project examples; however, any project that promotes the Purpose of KAMM is acceptable. Please be creative!
