The Grant Application must be completed online. You will first need to register in the Grant Application System by creating an account. We suggest creating your account well in advance of the deadline to avoid any last minute issues. At the time of registration, you are required to enter the following information:

• A username that is an email address (We suggest using an email address that is available to anyone at your organization who may need to access the information).
• Your contact information
• Your organization’s information, including the EIN/Tax ID number. (If you do not have a tax ID number, instructions for proceeding will be given online).
• Contact information for the organization’s Executive Officer.

Before you begin the application process, please be sure that you have collected all the documents listed in the Documentation Checklist below.

Once you begin the application process, you can save your form and return to it later. Remember to click “Submit Form” when you complete your online application. Note: Once the online application has been submitted, you will not be able to make any changes to it.

Once you have registered, your account dashboard is displayed on the screen every time you log in. From the dashboard you can do the following:

• Edit your contact information
• Begin the application process
• Access application drafts and submitted applications
