2) You will then be prompted to enter the nonprofit organization’s IRS Tax ID/EIN.

No. You can begin an application and work on it over multiple sessions.

There are three ways to do this.

1)  Every time a user clicks on the “Save & Finish Later” button featured at the bottom of every application page, the site takes the user back to the home page which shows a list of all “In Progress Applications”. Click on the name of the application to return to it.

2)  Every time a user clicks on the “Save & Finish Later” button, the site generates an email containing a copy of all the application content saved to date and a link to return to the site.

3)  Click on this URL: https://www.GrantRequest.com/SID_1578?SA=AM

Enter the site using your login ID (email address) and password. On the “In Progress Applications” page, click on the application name to open and continue working on an application in progress. Use the Action Menu (far right column) to delete a duplicate or unsubmitted application or to email a copy of an application to someone else to review.

NO. Progress on an application is not saved automatically. Moving between text fields and page tabs does NOT save your work. When you get a “Time Out” warning, clicking “Continue” does NOT save your work. If there is no activity on the site after 60 minutes, the site will shut down and any unsaved work will be lost. To save your content, click on the “Save & Finish Later” button that can be found at the bottom of each application page. Copying and pasting answers from a saved Word document can be a useful fail-safe.

Yes. Certain organizational and request-related financial documents will need to be provided. Those documents can be uploaded to the Attachments page of the application, and detailed instructions can be found there.

That template can be downloaded from the application site or by clicking here. If you encounter any difficulties downloading, please email  [email protected].

Yes. Click on the “Printer Friendly Version” link located in the top right corner of each application page.

Once the application is completed and all required attachments have been uploaded, click on the “Review & Submit” button at the bottom of the final page of the application. A confirmation email will be sent to the user account confirming receipt, typically within 3 to 5 business days.

The Foundation prefers applications be completed and submitted online. However, if you are encountering difficulties using the site, please email [email protected].for permission to submit an application and supporting materials offline.

Each account is linked to a single and unique email address. If a user has left an organization and a new employee needs access to the account, contact Foundation staff at [email protected] to transfer the account and its contents to a new user. If multiple individuals need access to a single account, it is recommended the organization create a general email address with a corresponding login to the site.
