State of Washington Tourism Awarding $270K in Tourism Grants
From South Sound Business:
State of Washington Tourism (SWT) is awarding a combined $270,000 in grant funding to 25 recipients across all 11 regions in the state.
A review committee of industry experts evaluated nearly 80 applicants for the tourism sustainability and technical assistance programs, a release said.
Grant recipients will use the funding to help support a wide range of tourism development projects. Applicants for tourism sustainability may request up to $30,000 in funds while applicants for the technical assistance grant can request $10,000 based on project eligibility.
Both programs are competitive and require Washington-based tourism stakeholders to complete an application. SWT encourages applicants to match a portion of their grant request with cash or in-kind contributions as well as collaborate with local destination marketing organizations and industry partners.
