11 projects are being given share of £2.2 million of taxpayers' money.
The cash has come from the government's contingency fund.
It includes £250,000 to open a Jersey Finance office in New York.
£150,000 will be spent on a review of Fort Regent, to help decide the future of the ailing leisure centre.
£170,000 is going towards a risk assessment into the threat of money laundering.
Jersey's sportsmen and women will benefit from a £200,000 pot for travel grants so they can compete overseas.
The same amount is being spent on children's early years policy development.
More than £900,000 of the cash is to support the ongoing public sector modernisation programme (marked * below)
This is the third tranche of additional funding approved by the Treasury Minister from the 2018 contingency.
The money has been released ahead of a States debate triggered by Deputy Jeremy Macon asking for a two week notice period so that States Members can challenge department funding bids.
The Assistant Minister says decisions 'are being made in the dark'.
