Organizations are invited to submit proposals after meeting with staff. These meetings are available at any time. Please contact the office to schedule.

EFFECTIVE MARCH 2, 2010 ALL GRANT SUBMISSIONS ARE ROLLING.  PLEASE SCHEDULE AN INTAKE TO DETERMINE IF YOU WILL BE INVITED TO APPLY.

In both neighborhood and community capacity grants please be aware of the following:

• At an initial meeting with staff we will learn more about your organization and explain our grantmaking procedures. See the Grantmaking FAQ page for more details on how to prepare for these meetings.
• Several weeks after that meeting you will be informed as to whether or not a proposal is invited, and why.
• Proposals must be submitted in their entirety, with all questions answered and all attachments included, or they will not be reviewed. Incomplete proposals will be returned to you.
• Once your application is completely submitted please be aware that it will mostly like be at least two months before you receive a final answer. As you begin to think about making a request, please be conscious of the time needed to meet with staff, prepare and submit a proposal, and find out the results.
