Dear Applicant,

​

We look forward to receiving your application. In order to make our review process streamlined and efficient, please follow our instructions below.

 

If you are applying for a Small Grant (up to $10,000), you are not eligible to apply for a Large Grant (up to $30,000). We are not accepting applications from organizations that have not been in operation for at least 2 years from the date of the application.  If you received a grant in 2023, you are not eligible to apply this year. Note that Small Grant Applicants must have had a minimum of $100,000 and no more than $999,999 in annual revenues in 2022.

​

Application instructions:

​

A) To apply for a Small Grant online, you will need a Gmail account. 

​

B)  If you need help in creating a Gmail account: How to Create a Gmail Account

 

C) In the application, enter your primary email to receive a completed copy. (This does not have to be a Gmail address.)

 

D) You will be prompted in the application form online to upload these financial and documentation files:

• Current Certificate of 501(c)(3) status

• Proof of registry of not-for-profit status with Georgia Secretary of State

• The two most recent IRS Form 990’s that have been filed (990 EZ forms are also acceptable.)

E) The submitted financials must reflect the financials of the 501(c)(3) organization that is applying for a Grant.

​

F) All uploaded files must be in PDF file format.

 

If your submitted application has any errors or omissions, you will be asked to re-apply, using a different Gmail account.

 

We will begin accepting submissions at 9:00 am on November 10, 2023.  We will consider the first nine (qualified and completed) Small Grant applications that we receive.  Please note that your application will not be eligible for the ballot until it is complete.
