Tourism Grant Application

The CVB Tourism Marketing Grant Program was established to enhance the economic impact of tourism in our community.  Each applicant can apply for up to $5000 each grant cycle.  $15,000 is available in each grant cycle for a total of $30,000 a year.  This grant is a reimbursement grant and not designed to cover the entire cost of a project. The program is designed to assist a Leavenworth, KS organization with their event or marketing program. Priority will be given to distinctive and creative projects or events that support the goals and mission of the CVB. Applications will be reviewed in two grant award cycles. The deadline for the first granting cycle will be February 1, and the second August 1.
