Essex opens applications for next community partnership fund

The Town of Essex is looking for a few good groups to recognize for enhancing the local quality of life.

The application process has been opened for the 2026 Community Partnership Fund, an annual municipal grant initiative.

"The Community Partnership Fund reflects our Town’s commitment to supporting the groups and organizations that make Essex a vibrant and caring community," said Mayor Sherry Bondy. "By investing in these partnerships, we are investing in programs and services that enrich the lives of our residents and strengthen our community spirit."

The Town's annual operating budget funds the program, which in turn funds organizations and agencies that deliver meaningful community benefits.

Applications will be accepted through November 30.

To apply online, or get further information, visit the Town of Essex's official website.
