Harmony Projects is pleased to announce the 2025 cycle of the Harmony Fund, a small-grants program rooted in our commitment to community engagement and sustainable growth. We believe a thriving community is one that is socially strong and nature focused. Our grantmaking reflects our values and our passion for supporting local leadership, creativity, and collective well-being.
Harmony Fund grants will support community-led initiatives and organizations that work to build Nosara's capacity to address challenges and identify opportunities for growth, all while working to protect the aspects that make Nosara beautiful and unique. We take the long view, stay adaptable, and welcome different points of view.
First-time applicants can apply for up to $1,000, while organizations that received funding in prior cycles and successfully implemented funded projects can apply for up to $2,000.
