MAKING YOUR GRANT APPLICATION    

 

When can you make an application?   

Applications are accepted during the Spring and Fall Grant Cycles. The Grant Committee will review all the applications and recommend successful grant applications to the Foundation's Board.  Once the Foundation's board has approved the successful grants, you will be notified of the decision, and arrangements will be made for you to receive the grant cheque and have pictures taken.
