PCC Natural Markets has launched a community Grant program. Four times a year, PCC will award a $1,000 grant to a school or nonprofit that exemplifies the spirit of the community.

Grants will be awarded to schools or nonprofits with official 501c3 status. PCC is seeking projects and programs that involve food, particularly those relating to education, nutrition or sustainability. The winning organizations will be shared on PCC’s website throughout the year.

Application information can be found online. Applications will take time to process and review, but will remain active for 12 months.

Headquartered in Seattle, PCC Natural Markets operates nine locations, including Issaquah.
