Application Forms

Any non-profit organization, institution, individual, or ad hoc group may receive a grant. Examples of eligible applicants include, but are not limited to:

• Social service organizations and clubs
• Churches
• State and local governmental agencies
• Business and professional groups
• Schools
• Corporations
• Public radio and television stations
• Museums
• Historical societies
• Public libraries
• Arts organizations
• Colleges and Universities

Informal groups organized solely to submit a grant may also apply for funding. Applicants need not be incorporated as a non-profit organization or have official tax-exempt status, but they must be able to demonstrate that they are "not for profit" and that they can manage all aspects of the project adequately.
