Funding
Funding is dispersed in early February of the cycle year at 75% of the total award. The remaining 25% is dispersed upon completion of a final report. Totaling awards of $1,500.00 or less will receive a lump sum. This is a match grant. A 50% cash or 50% in-kind match is required.
Final Report
A final report is required by all awarded recipients. Reports are necessary to document accurate funding and programming. Final reports may be submitted at the conclusion of an event or by the date designated by the Division. Failure to submit a final report will forgo the applicant's eligibility of remaining funds.
