The application asks brief pre-qualification questions to determine if your organization is eligible to apply for a grant. You will then be asked to provide:
- General information about your organization
- A narrative that summarizes the project, including the needs your organization aims to address, other partner organizations (if applicable), and how your organization plans to evaluate the project
- Results your organization hopes to accomplish through the project
- A detailed project budget and information about other funding sources
- Supporting documents
- A final decision about your grant is made by the board of directors. Your organization may receive full or partial funding, or we may decline to fund your project. You will receive notification of the decision via a phone call, email or letter.
Completed applications and all required documents should be mailed to: HealthCare Foundation of Cleveland County, P.O. Box 550, Shelby, NC 28151 or emailed to: [email protected]
If your grant is approved, within two weeks of the decision your organization will receive an award agreement to be signed as well the reporting requirements. Once we receive the signed award agreement, a grant check will be mailed shortly thereafter. Organizations that receive a grant are required to submit a report. This report helps to measure the impact of the program as well as to confirm that the funds granted were used for the intended purpose.
