State Funding Request

State Representative Michael "Mike" Crawford is committed to helping bring state resources back to the communities of Illinois House District 31. Through the state budget process, capital appropriations, grant opportunities, and legislative advocacy, our office works to identify funding opportunities that support local organizations, schools, municipalities, nonprofits, workforce programs, and community development initiatives.

Organizations seeking state support are encouraged to submit information about their project, program, or funding need using the form below. These requests help our office understand community priorities and identify opportunities to advocate for investments that benefit residents of the 31st District.

Submission of a funding request does not guarantee funding, sponsorship, or inclusion in a state budget or grant program. All requests are reviewed based on community impact, project readiness, eligibility, available funding opportunities, and alignment with district priorities.

Please Note: Our office may request additional information, including project budgets, organizational documents, letters of support, or evidence of community impact. Early submission is encouraged for projects seeking consideration during the annual state budget process. All organizations receiving state funding must be GATA approved.
