FRWD Grants

About FRWD Grants

Funding for FRWD grants is provided through user fees collected on each ton of waste sent to landfills in the Front Range region. The fee is credited to a cash fund to finance the grant program. Collection of these fees began in January 2020 and will increase over the next several years, ultimately providing an estimated $15 million in grant dollars per year. In the first eight grant cycles, FRWD awarded 47 grants totaling over $18 million.
