The City of Pueblo Non-Department Funding Request Application consists of the following components below. This checklist is provided to help ensure a complete request

Note: The City of Pueblo is only accepting applications for those organizations that have contractual agreements with the City and have been invited to apply. Due to a projected budget shortfall in 2026, the City of Pueblo is not entertaining other Non-Departmental requests. While this particular avenue is unavailable, ineligible applicants are encouraged to explore other funding opportunities available through the City. The Community Services Advisory Commission (CSAC)-a collaborative City-County initiative-provides approximately one million dollars annually to support local nonprofit partners.
