About the Proposal Submission Process
Proposals are accepted annually. Requests for 2026 grants were be accepted between April 13, 2026 and midnight Friday May 15, 2026. Dates for submission for the 2027 calendar year will be posted in early January 2027. The submissions are carefully reviewed by the board of directors during the months of May and early June, with the awards distributed in early July. For an award given in 2026 your first report will be due on May 30, 2027.
Proposals
You may download the Proposal submission process for 2026 here. We request that you create your proposal in the format which best suits you then submit it in either:
- Portable Document Format (PDF)(preferred method)
- Microsoft Office types (Word and/or Excel)
This is in keeping with our green initiative.
To help you with the process, we have created an example application which you may download here.
How to Submit a Proposal
We are not accepting Proposals's at this time. During the submission time period for the 2027 calendar year instructions will be on this page regarding how to submit a proposal.
Grant Reporting
We require an annual Grant Reporting Form be submitted. Grants reports are due by May 30th of the following year and every year thereafter until the funds are exhausted.
The report will give us a brief update of how your funds are being used and where you are in the process when funds were requested. We require that
you use our form.
The form is available here in both Microsoft Word and
Adobe PDF formats.
