Format for Grant Application Cover Sheet
Trustees review a one-page Grant Application Cover Sheet (below), but may also request any back-up documentation that your organization provides. In this way, they can view a synopsis of your request and then have further information if they are interested in the initial proposal.
For this reason, you will want to make your Grant Application Cover Sheet as complete and succinct as possible. We recommend using the Form below and emailing it to us in addition to any supporting documentation.
If necessary, you may send some items or everything by regular mail. Following the format of the Cover Sheet will insure that your request gets the best possible consideration. Failure to follow the format, or to include required documentation, may result in delays or rejection of your request.
Additonal Documents which MUST be attached or sent:
> Detailed Project Budget (please include any in-kind donations)
> Copy of most recent IRS Tax-Exemption Determination Letter
> Annual Report (if available)
> List of current Board of Directors
> Any additional documentation which might help Trustees evaluate your request
