Grants Office

The City of Pittsburgh’s Grants Office is situated within the Office of Management and Budget and is tasked with centralizing the City’s grant-seeking efforts, as well as providing guidance and oversight to City departments in managing their post-award grant administration and reporting processes. The mission of the Grants Office is to increase the City’s capacity to compete for federal, state, county, corporate, and foundation grants, and to effectively assist in the full life-cycle of grant management from application, to award, through close-out. The aim is to increase grant-related revenue, limit the City’s exposure to any grant- related legal liability, and improve the efficiency and impact of programs and services funded through grant dollars. The Grants Office helps departments find and apply for grant opportunities, thereby allowing each department to expand its overall capacity without placing greater burden on the City’s Operating and Capital budgets. Grant funds received by the City of Pittsburgh support important programs and services that the City provides to our community. These funds allow the City to extend pre-existing services, introduce new initiatives, gain technological advances, and subsidize programmatic staffing and equipment. Grant funds are dispersed throughout the City and impact a variety of efforts, including public safety, economic development, social services, recreation, infrastructure improvement and maintenance, and many others. Because grant funding allows the City to leverage local public funds in order to extend and enhance the services it offers to the community, the impact of grant funding upon the City of Pittsburgh is significant. In 2025, the Grants Office helped secure over $14.7 million dollars through 21 grants at the State and Federal level. Some of this funding will support a study of our high crash roadways to further the City's vision of zero roadway deaths, as well as a drop-in support center for individuals requesting social services.
