History

In 2010, St. Lucie County Commissioners implemented a policy to allow funding to be awarded to non-profit agencies, if excess fees were received two years prior to the start of the fiscal year. In 2020, the County entered into a partnership with the United Way of St. Lucie County to administer the County’s non-profit grant program. In the 2021-2022 Fiscal Year, the Board of County Commissioners funded the non-profit grants administered through the United Way at $606,814.
