Launching in Fall 2026!
Interested property or business owners will be asked to complete an application for a grant to make physical improvements to their property. This program will likely be structured as a matching grant program with applicants expected to contribute a portion of the construction costs. Grants will be awarded for masonry repairs, cladding panels, display windows, entryway doors, exterior painting, new signage and awnings, new lighting and other improvements that will make storefronts more functional and attractive.
BEDCo intends to raise sufficient funds from the Pennsylvania Main Street Matters program and individual donors every year to make a number of grant awards in future years. More information will be coming soon.
