  • The current year’s organizational budget;
  • The proposed project budget, if applicable; and,
  • A copy of the applicant’s tax exempt letter from the IRS. If your organization is a 509(a)(3), please provide documentation of this status and indicate whether it is a Type I, Type II, or Type III.
Please include an email contact in the LOI for correspondence. Incomplete LOI submissions (including attachments) will not be considered.
