About the SECA Fund: The City of Naperville encourages celebrations of community and cultural opportunities that focus on the heritage, diversity and character of the city. In support of these activities, the city offers funds, derived from the Citywide 1 percent food and beverage tax, for the purpose of aiding eligible non-profit organizations in providing new and continued cultural experiences.
