Grants & Sponsorships

To help Coliseum Central Business Improvement District (DISTRICT) business and property owners enhance the safety of their property, the DISTRICT has begun a Security Camera Grant program.

The Security Improvement Grant matches up to $2,500 of physical improvements to enhance the level of security and safety of businesses or public spaces. A Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) survey must be conducted by the Hampton Police Division Community Relations (757-727-6574) to be eligible for funding.

The Physical Improvement Grant provides matching funds of up to $10,000 to businesses owners who seek to improve the exterior appearance of their property. Funds may be used for facade, landscaping and/or public beautifications. Applicants must submit a plan for faces and streetscape improvements containing a description and illustration of planned improvements and an itemized budget, including design, installation, and fabrication costs. Free professional design consultation is provided to approved applicants of the grant program.

Coliseum Central is a proud sponsor of many community organizations and events.  The Marketing Committee meets monthly to review submitted sponsorship applications and funds will be administered, budget permitting, based on the proposed goodwill as well as the marketing benefit received.  Sponsorship applications must be received no later than 60 days prior to date of your event.
