Factors in Considering
District Simplified Grant Applications
|
|
|
Is the project eligible using the TRF
District Simplified Grants Terms and Conditions? |
|
Priority for projects involving youth,
indigent people, education |
|
Club contributions to TRF |
|
Prior year compliance with policy |
If we have more requests
than available funds --
|
|
|
|
Club contributions to TRF |
|
Does the club give at least $100 per capita? |
|
Does the club promote the EREY concept? |
|
Prior year compliance with policy |
|
Have all reports and receipts been submitted
from prior grants? |
|
Are any clubs willing to reduce the
grant amount requested? |
If we still have more
requests than available funds --
|
|
|
|
Prorate the grant amount based on the
club per capita giving to TRF. For example, |
|
Clubs giving over $200 per capita would
receive 100% of request |
|
Clubs giving $150-200 per capita would
receive 75% of request |
|
Clubs giving $100-150 per capita would
receive 50% of request |

"Reporting
Requirements"
|
|
|
Reporting Requirements |
|
|
|
Progress reports will be required every
twelve months for the life of a grant with a final report due within two
months of the project’s completion. |
|
The requirements for these reports has
substantially increased. |
