Tips

Applications may only be submitted during the dates listed. The New Proposal icon will NOT appear until the submission window is open. Do not attempt to submit an application prior to the submission start date or you might lose your work.

In preparation for submitting your application, we encourage you to compose the proposal in Microsoft Word/ Google Doc and once it is ready, copy and paste content directly into the foundation’s online application.

Narrative questions only populate after selecting the Support Type and hitting the save button.

Detailed application instructions and a downloadable Application Overview PDF can be found under Application Procedures.

Check the website often as dates may need to shift for unforeseen circumstances.
