In 2008, the Foundation will conduct two large community
responsive grant cycles. Mini-grant and capacity-building
grant cycles conducted in prior years are not currently
planned for 2008.
Mark your calendar for these key dates in 2008. Letters of Interest
(LOI) are due on April 2, 2008 (grant cycle
1) and September 23, 2008 (grant cycle
2). Applicants with an LOI selected for further
development will receive an invitation to submit a full
grant proposal and additional application guidance.
Only those applications invited to the full proposal
round will be reviewed for the full proposal deadlines.
