County Holding Free OED Grant Workshops

By Maui Now Staff

The County of Maui Mayor’s Office of Economic Development is offering a free workshop on OED grants funding for the 2016 fiscal year.

The workshop will be held on two different dates to accommodate the public. The first workshop will take place on Tuesday, June 23, from 2 to 4 p.m. in the Maui Arts & Cultural Center’s Haynes Meeting Room. The second workshop will be held on Thursday, July 2, from 2 to 4 p.m. in the Maui Arts & Cultural Center’s Higashi Meeting Room.

“This is a perfect opportunity to learn all about OED funding, how to apply and what criteria we consider when making funding decisions,” said Teena Rasmussen, director of OED. “We urge our current grantees to attend, as well as any organization who might like to seek future OED funding.”

Attendees will receive a Fiscal Year 2016 application packet and complete step-by-step training on the application process.

OED staff will be on-hand to answer any questions attendees might have.
