Applications for 2025 funding through the City of Hammond’s Gaming Advisory Committee are
now available. Applications are available at Hammond City Hall in the Mayor’s Office Suite 215
or you may download a copy online at www.gohammond.com/departments/mayors-office.
Funding is available to local not-for-profit organizations that demonstrate their project, activities,
and services to provide direct benefit to the citizens of Hammond. The funds and application
process are overseen by the Gaming Advisory Committee, which represents a cross section of
Hammond residents and city council members. It is chaired by Scott Miller, Mayor’s Chief of
Staff. In 2024 the Gaming Advisory Committee was able to award over $400,000 to help dozens
of organizations.
Applications must be received by February 21, 2025 for consideration for funding. The
application process provides the advisory committee with information about the projects and
organizations. Applicants may be requested to appear before the committee to further present
their proposal.
Questions regarding the application process may be directed to Kristie Ormes, at 219 853-6302 or
by going online at www.gohammond.com.
