HOW TO APPLY FOR A GRANT REQUEST
The Santa Monica Bay Sailing Foundation (SMBSF) supports youth and adult sailing within the Santa Monica Bay area including Westlake Village, Marina del Rey, and King Harbor. This dynamic community-based organization provides the opportunity for sailing, educational training, sailing program scholarships, regatta competition, and development of junior sailing courses within our designated region.
Each year, SMBSF offers a limited number of grants to individuals, sailing teams, and sailing programs who demonstrate a need for extra funding. Requests may be made for educational expenses, regatta fees, and other costs of participating in sail racing events and activities. SMBSF also assists sailing programs by partially funding equipment needs.
Although grant requests may be made at any time, grants are only awarded during regularly scheduled meetings occurring no fewer than five times per year. Our meeting schedule for 2007. It is important to submit your Grant Request at least one week in advance of the meeting. This will provide the Board of Directors time to review your paperwork:
JANUARY 25 MARCH 22 MAY 8 JULY 10
SEPTEMBER 11 NOVEMBER 13
It is important that those submitting requests, be aware of and plan submissions in accordance with this review and award schedule. Requests that are not submitted on time or are incomplete may be reviewed at the next meeting. A request for funding does not guarantee funding.
Awards may be made for the full or partial requested amount.
####
Please contact Laurie at lrpetersen@aol.com if you have not heard from the foundation within 5 weeks of your application.
Those requesting grants are required to enter into a Grant Agreement with the SMBSF which states the terms and conditions of the grant. The Foundation may send a follow-up form to be filled out and returned soon after the awardee has completed participation in the funded event. The award of a grant neither precludes subsequent requests for similar or different purposes by the same grantee nor guarantees a subsequent award for the same or different purposes.
Please read over the instructions in each part of the grant request, and submit all supportive documentation necessary to help the Foundation make an educated decision regarding the request.
Submit the application no later than seven (7) days prior to the next scheduled meeting as shown above.
