Step Two:
Meeting: If the Letter of Inquiry is approved, Foundation staff will contact the organization to schedule a meeting. We encourage prospective grantees to include up to three representatives, preferably with leadership from both the staff and board. The meeting is an opportunity for the Foundation to ask questions and better understand the needs of the organization.
Step Three:
Submission of Grant Application: Following the meeting, Foundation staff will recommend to the organization whether to submit a formal grant application. A Grant Applicant Questionnaire, which outlines the information and materials that should be submitted with the proposal, will be provided. Applicants will be notified in writing of the Board’s decision following the Board Meeting.
