MERRIFIELD COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS PROGRAM
Do you live or work in Merrifield and want to help shape an even stronger community? Are you part of a local organisation or business with an idea, project or initiative that will enhance and enrich the lives of your neighbours? Then Merrifield wants to hear from you!
The Merrifield Community Partnerships Program (MCPP) is a unique, financial support initiative for individuals, groups and businesses looking to partner with Merrifield to meet the cultural, recreational, social, and entrepreneurial needs of this fast-growing and vibrant community.
With funding up to $20,000 available across multiple categories, MCPP is just one of the ways we’re working together to make Merrifield the place to be!
