DECI Sponsorship Request

In an effort to support initiatives that encourage individuals within and outside the greater Eau Claire community to come downtown or establish businesses in the downtown, DECI chooses to invest in the community via the following funding request and annual grant guidelines.

Available funds, up to $1,000 per grant, will vary annually and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis until the funds are depleted. Previously approved funding decisions do not guarantee future funding availability or decisions.

Preceding the event, requestors will be required to complete this application that will be due two weeks prior to the monthly DECI Board meeting which occurs the first Wednesday of the month. For example, if the Board meets on 9/4 (the first Wednesday of each month), the application will be due on 8/21 for any events that occur after 9/4.  Late applications will not be accepted.

If you have supporting documents to attach, please write "attachments to come" in the field, compile attachments into a single PDF if possible and email them to downtown@eauclairewi.gov.
