45 applicants received support for projects and events
Almost £75,000 was granted for projects over the 2018 Year of Our Island initiative.
Throughout the year, the political board received 92 applications - with 45 given funding approval.
A maximum figure of £6,000 was available per application.
In total more than £400,000 was sought by applicants - but fewer than half were successful.
The numbers have been revealed in a written answer to Tynwald, by the Policy and Reform Minister Chris Thomas.
He says there are many factors considered with each application:
Manx Care seeks to reassure patients over remote GP appointments
Resident backs Andreas Commissioner's calls for new speed buffer zones
Growth 'vital for everything else'
Local retailer brings 'original' woven Island Tartan back to shelves
