Pentwater Jr. Women’s Club is now accepting funding requests through Aug. 31

The Pentwater Jr. Women’s Club (PJWC) is announcing the project funding timeline for 2026 and accepting requests from local organizations who meet the funding guidelines. The funding guidelines and funding request form are located on the PJWC website: www.pentwaterjrwomensclub.com under 'Funding Request'.
The request must be submitted on the Funding Request Form no later than Aug. 31, 2026. Funding requests may be e-mailed to pentwaterjrwomensclub@gmail.com or mailed to PJWC, P.O. Box 357, Pentwater, MI 49449. Funded projects will be announced in November 2026.
Funding requests from local organizations must benefit the greater Pentwater area. Requests are divided into two categories: mini grants and larger requests. Funded projects are based upon availability of funds and the annual budget of PJWC.
Examples of past projects funded include: donations towards the Pentwater Arts Council’s Sculpture Project; Pentwater South Entrance Garden and Welcome sign; contributions towards the renovation of the Friendship Center, now Park Place; handicapped walkway at Mears State Park Beach; and the drinking fountain on the Village Green, to name a few recent allocations. PJWC also funds the mobile food pantry located at the fire barn on the third Tuesday of the month.
After reviewing the funding guidelines, individuals seeking more information related to the funding cycle should e-mail pentwaterjrwomensclub@gmail.com. 
PJWC is a volunteer service club of women dedicated to promoting and improving the local community of Pentwater.
