Founded in 2008, ECGRA was created to ensure Erie County’s local share gaming revenue was reinvested back into the community through strategic economic and community development initiatives.

What began as a mission to administer municipal grants has grown into an impact investing organization supporting nonprofits, municipalities, small businesses, neighborhoods, and youth programs across Erie County.

Today, ECGRA continues to invest gaming funds in projects that strengthen the region’s economy, communities, and quality of life — creating lasting impact for the County’s residents.
