Just a quick note to let all of you know that our board reviewed the LOIs for our Spring 2012 grant cycle and I'll be getting back to all applicants before the end of next week with instructions on next steps.  As typical, we received many more LOIs than we can invite to submit grant proposals.  It is wonderful to see all of the great work that our nonprofits are doing for the community!

Wanted to share the news with you that the board agreed to remove the requirement to send hardcopies of the LOIs and grant proposals.  Please use the electronic submission tools on our website to submit your applications, etc.

Our Spring grant cycle is closed.  We are no longer accepting LOIs in the areas of Areas of Arts & Culture and Education.  Our board is meeting in late February to discuss all of the LOIs in these two areas then we'll be getting back to you with further instructions.  Our Spring grants will be made in the June 2012 timeframe so you may not have heard anything back from us.

Our Fall grant cycle is open.  We are accepting LOIs in the areas of Environment and Health & Human Services.  So, check out Current Grant Focuses on our website.

Remember, we change our focuses regularly and post them about one year in advance of a particular grant cycle.  Check our website a couple times per year.
