The funding cycle runs on a calendar year basis with committee and board meetings being held quarterly. Proposals are received and reviewed continuously throughout the year. You will receive acknowledgement when your proposal has been received in our office.
A proposal should contain the following elements:
1. Summary statement and background information.
2. The names of the individuals on your board of directors.
3. Specific monetary amount requested with a budget listing how the funds will be spent.
4. A copy of your annual operating budget.
5. A copy of your most recent IRS 990 tax form.
6. A copy of your IRS 501 (c) 3 tax exempt status letter.
Please note that the above items are to be included in all proposals whether you are a first time grant seeker or a returning grant seeker.
Notification regarding the funding decision will be sent as soon as possible following a committee meeting.
