Join us on Thursday, February 20th to learn how you may receive grant funding up to $250K for your small business or cultural organization. If your business or organization is located in a Neighborhood Opportunity area, attend our in-person seminar with @Somercor to learn the process directly! 

The Neighborhood Opportunity Fund (NOF) was launched in 2016 to build strong and vibrant commercial corridors on the South, Southwest, and West Sides of Chicago. It is a reimbursement grant and technical assistance program that supports permanent builds and renovations of commercial spaces. SomerCor is proud to administer the NOF Grant on behalf of the Chicago Department of Planning and Development (DPD). 

NOF grants cover 75% of eligible project costs up to $250,000 and up to $50,000 in additional funding may be provided for approved technical assistance. Grant eligibility depends on project location, project use, and the amount of financial assistance being requested. Grant funds can only be accessed through reimbursement or an escrow agreement for completed work.
