The Foundation's Online Application
(ARCHIVE PAGE AS OF 08.01.11)
- Online Applicants can gain access to our online, web-based
grants application and tracking system
through this page. Click on the “Go To Login”
link below. PLEASE NOTE: By clicking on the button below, you will
leave the Foundation's main web site. You may wish to bookmark the
Foundation's home page so that you have an easy way of returning. If you have not done so already, applicants must create an
account in order to use our grants application system. The Login Page
will give you this opportunity. Your email address will be your user
name. If you forget your password, you can retrieve it using your user
name (which, again, is your email address). If you forget the email
address you used for your user name, contact the Foundation using the
CONTACT button above for further assistance. Please familiarize
yourself with the Mission, Vision, and Aim of the Foundation (by
clicking on the MISSION button to the left) before starting the online
application process. You may also want to browse our web site before
beginning the online application process.
- Briefly speaking, here's a description of our General
Grant Application and Tracking Process: 1) the first time through, you will be asked to
create an account, which will provide the Foundation with basic
CONTACT information (which is for Foundation use only), 2) you will be
asked to complete a Letter of Intent (LOI), 3) if your LOI is approved
by the staff (check your account to find out), then you will be asked
to complete a Full Application, and 4) if the Full Application is
approved at a meeting of the board, you will be sent a Grant Agreement
Letter, which will include grant follow-up and reporting instructions.
FYI - you can access Full Application approval information as well as
file follow-up reports via your account.
- Good to Know items about our online, web-based grants
application and tracking system: 1) you can track the progress of the application
process using this program, therefore we recommend that you
periodically (at least once a week) login and check for progress
updates and other feedback, 2) you can start the application process
and come back to it at a later date if you wish (just click the DRAFT
button), 3) you can gain access
to our online application from any computer that has access to the
Internet given that your web browser software is up to task (see next
item below), 4) you can convert paper forms (say, your 501(c)(3)
ruling letter from the IRS) to electronic files (in PDF format) by
using the Fax-to-File feature of the program. Once in
electronic file format, you can easily attach supporting documents to
your application (as well as follow-up reports). You may wish to
bookmark this page or the following Login Page for quick access to our
online application system, and 5) once you logout of our system you
can return to our home page by clicking in the upper-left corner of
the logo box.
- Your Browser Software has to be up to snuff in order to
properly use our online, web-based grants application and tracking system. If you bought your
computer system within the last few months, chances are you're set to
use our system. If it has been awhile since you purchased your system
(or maybe you received it as a donation) then you may want to check
the level of your browser software and then read this short article
entitled:
Upgrading your Browser Software.
NOTE: if the above button does not "glow" as you move
your mouse over it, chances are your Java software is not turned on.
Here's a text link to the login screen, however, without Java, you may
not be able to effectively use our online application.
