Process Overview


PRELIMINARY APPLICATION (or LOI)

Our Preliminary Application (LOI) for the Rose & Daffodil Grants is being updated and abbreviated. Please check back later this spring for an updated version or email us at grants@marielamfrom.org with any questions.

FINAL APPLICATION

In general, our final application is unique in that the prompts and questions assigned to applicants are personalized to each organization.

We use your Preliminary Application (LOI) responses and other resources (e.g. website, Form 990) to curate specific questions relevant to our own learning. This eliminates time spent on irrelevant questions and expedites the application process. Final application questions will be assigned to applicants when the application is made available to them. Additional questions or prompts may be assigned by Program Officers during the evaluative process.

While much of the final application is unique, all of our applicants will be asked to address the following prompt, which helps us to understand where your organization is headed or what it aims to achieve in the year(s) ahead:

What is one strategic goal or objective that your organization expects to address during the term of this grant?

Note to Applicants

We include our application questions on our website as a courtesy and in an effort to award applicants additional time to prepare. The questions and prompts included here are subject to change and may not be precisely identical to those in our application. Additionally, the questions themselves are not comprehensive, with drop down options and some administrative prompts (e.g. secondary instruction) excluded. If a prompt is unclear to you on our website, please kindly first review it in the application (once open) before contacting us for clarifications.
