The Youth Advisory Committee established the Youth Mini-Grant Program in Fiscal Year 2012-13 to
support youth organizations that offer programs for middle and high school students. The Youth Mini-
Grant Program has $10,000 to allocate to the organizations. Each year, Dublin-based youth
organizations and clubs have an opportunity to apply for grant funding to assist in offering activities to
the community, including performing arts, sports, multicultural awareness, health awareness, or
other programs that support projects or activities benefiting Dublin youth. Funding is recommended
by the Committee, reviewed by the Parks and Community Services Commission, and awarded to
organizations and clubs by the City Council.

2026-2027 Youth Mini-Grants
The Fiscal Year 2026-27 application period was open from September 4 to October 2, 2026. The
program was advertised via social media, the City’s website, at Dublin middle and high schools, and
was sent to Committee members to assist with publicity. Twenty-two applications were submitted by
the deadline.
Staff used the Youth Advisory Committee Mini-Grant Application Rating Form (Attachment 3) to
evaluate the grant proposals. The top 10 applicants were invited to present at the October 14, 2026
Youth Advisory Committee meeting for funding consideration. Nine organizations presented; the
organization that did not attend was not considered for funding. The nine organizations that gave
presentations are listed in Table 1, and their applications are included as Attachment 2.
The Committee evaluated the presentations, deliberated, and developed funding recommendations.
Table 1 lists organizations in descending order by average Committee rating, from highest to lowest,
with ties listed in order of the amount awarded.

The Emerald High School Wellness Ambassadors and Emerald High School Gardening Club were both
awarded more than requested. The Committee felt that, based on current needs and the
organizations’ respective goals, additional funding would help support proposed activities, address
current needs, and maximize the overall impact of the projects.
On October 19, 2026, the Parks and Community Services Commission confirmed the selections made
by the Committee and recommended the funding allocations to the City Council.
Grant recipients will be required to submit a brief project report to describe how the funds were used
and the number of youth impacted upon completion of projects. Grantees are encouraged to provide
photos, testimonials, and flyers used to promote their projects. Those not submitting a report as
requested may not be considered for future Youth Mini-Grants. Project reports will be delivered at the
Committee’s Regular Meeting in April or May 2027.
