Begin the Application Process with a Letter of Inquiry

A Letter of Inquiry is an essential first step in the General Grant application process. A clearly written Letter of Inquiry will save time for you and will help us understand how well your proposed project may fit with areas of Trust interest. Learn more about writing your Letter of Inquiry.

Completing the Application Process — Getting Your Password

If your proposed project appears to be eligible for Trust consideration, we will send you a letter encouraging an application. This letter will include a password which you can use to download from the left side bar on the General Grants Application page. Complete the form and remit the printed copies of the completed forms.

There are no deadlines for submission of proposals to the Trust, but it will normally take six to nine months for the proposals to be processed, evaluated, and final action taken.
