Community Partnership Grant (CPG)

Welcome to the Prince George’s County Community Partnership Grant website. We work collaboratively with community partners to meet the social and human needs of our county residents.

Our Vision

Our vision is to grow pride and sustainability in our Prince George’s County community by improving the quality of life for our citizens and residents. We believe that the nonprofit community is an integral part of our economic and social ecosystem, and are thereby committed to fostering an environment that reflects the Administration’s guiding principles of Integrity, Innovation, Collaboration, and Solutions.

The Office of the County Executive will ensure that the discretionary funding we invest in organizations will be in accordance with established criteria and focused on achieving quantifiable results.

What is CPG?

The Community Partnership Grant (CPG) program is the main discretionary grant initiative offered by the Office of the County Executive to qualified nonprofit organizations based upon a set of criteria, including the value added to the identified community, overall program costs, organizational stability, and adequacy of other funding sources.

The County Executive’s FY 2024 approved budget contains approximately $2.5 million for competitive grants to 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organizations based in or providing services in Prince George’s County.
