We had the name of the grant program, Every Kid in a Park Transportation Grant, translated into Spanish. Are these words, once translated into Spanish, not capitalized?

No, in principle you would just capitalize the nouns that correspond to unique things. You can see Uso de mayúsculas by Diccionario Panhispánico de Dudas– fedorquiCommented Nov 3, 2015 at 22:37

It's a matter of style and taste. To me those capitals don't look nice in English either. I personally would preferred all capitals or only the first word of the sentence.– DGaleanoCommented Nov 4, 2015 at 18:49

I take back my previous comment. I read the link provided by @fedroqui and I think you should keep the capitals on each word according to paragraph 4.23.– DGaleanoCommented Nov 4, 2015 at 19:05

Yes. They should be capitalized as defined by the RAE here
4.23. Las palabras que forman parte de la denominación oficial de premios, distinciones, certámenes y grandes acontecimientos culturales o deportivos: el Premio Cervantes, los Goya, la Gran Cruz de la Orden de Alfonso X el Sabio, la Bienal de Venecia, la Feria del Libro, los Juegos Olímpicos. Por lo que respecta a los premios, cuando nos referimos al objeto material que los representa o a la persona que los ha recibido, se utiliza la minúscula: Esa actriz ya tiene dos goyas; Ha colocado el óscar encima del televisor; Esta noche entrevistan al nobel de literatura de este año.
No, just capitalize names, cities, or places, and words after a dot.
For example:
Hola, mi nombre es David. Nací en la ciudad de Bogotá.
translated to English:
Hi, my name is David. I was born in Bogotá city.
