Greensboro requests proposals for summer cooling stations, day centers and support services

The City of Greensboro’s Community Safety Department announced a request for proposals for summer cooling stations, day centers, day labor programming and support services intended to support people experiencing homelessness and other residents during the summer months. The briefing stated a deadline of May 5, then corrected calendar details and referenced May 8 and a 5:00 time; interested providers were directed to greensboro-nc.gov/csd.GV/CSDRFP for submission instructions and more information.

The announcement said the work would be funded through local housing partnership funds and invited homeless service providers and agencies to apply. The briefing did not provide a formal program name or a complete funding breakdown in the audio; the transcript contained a phrase transcribed as “Nusbomb housing partnership funds,” which may be a transcription error and is not used here as the authoritative fund name. Providers seeking confirmation of the deadline, funding source or application requirements should consult the city’s procurement page linked in the announcement.

No formal contact person or procurement number was read in the briefing. The announcement closed by directing prospective applicants to the city website for the full request-for-proposals document and submission instructions.
