We know that grant applications can seem intimidating. That’s why we’ve made this easy! Your application is broken down into two simple steps, and once you submit your Reservation Request (Part One) below, we will provide personal, 1-on-1 support to help you get the information gathered.

Step 1: Simply show your interest with a Reservation Request to secure funds. Easy!

✔️ What it is: A quick, 5-minute online form to collect your basic contact and project ideas.
✔️ What it does: This form holds your place for grant consideration and gets you scheduled for your personal help session.
