Grant Award Process
How are grants awarded?
-
Non-profit organizations in Baldwin County are encouraged to submit grant applications.
-
Volunteer committees read the applications, debate the merits of each, perform site visits and narrow their choices.
-
Finalists are selected from each focus area and written summaries of their projects are presented to the entire membership prior to the annual meeting.
-
Representatives from each of the finalist organizations make a short presentation at the annual meeting in the fall.
-
Each member votes at the annual meeting or by proxy or absentee ballot to determine the grant recipients.
