About Our Grant Program

 

Thank you for your interest in a Cherry Capital Cycling Club Grant.

The Mission of the Cherry Capital Cycling Club is to promote a cycling community as part of a healthy lifestyle. This mission shall be accomplished by:
a) conducting rides and other bicycling events
b) providing social opportunities for members
c) promoting bicycle safety
d) supporting local, state, and national bicycling and trail organizations
e) advocating for increased cycling support among the public, government agencies and elected officials

Our two, one-day tours, the Ride Around Torch and the Leelanau Harvest Tour enables the CCCC to conduct a productive and meaningful grant program supporting bicycling projects that promote bicycling as part of a healthy lifestyle. We award grants to organizations for projects that support this mission.

Since 1999 the CCCC has proudly granted over $400,000 to local organizations seeking to do projects like this.

The Club has one grant review cycle each year. Providing that sufficient funds are available from the above rides, we accept applications for grants between February 1 through March 31, and announce award decisions shortly after May 15. We send Agreement Letters to all awardees. Upon return of those signed agreements, we mail the award checks.
