WHICH FUNDING ROUND?
Deciding which round of grants to apply for depends on when your project will take place.
The Board policy does not permit retroactive funding of projects. If your project happens before the granting decision date, the application will be ineligible. Since projects must happen within 12 months of receiving a grant, timing the application to an earlier round ensures that the deadline criteria is met.
If your project will take place between January 1 and December 30, apply for the Fall round of the preceding year (October deadline).
If your project will take place between July 1 and the following June 30, apply for the Spring round of the current year (May deadline).
