Grants from the Ashtabula Foundation benefit all residents throughout Ashtabula County who seek greater quality in their educational, religious and cultural pursuits.  Grants are provided to meet a wide range of needs, from start-up seed money to matching funds for fully funded projects. In addition we are a proactive partner with organizations like the Civic Development Corporation (CDC) to initiate, develop or support specific programs and projects.

ASHTABULA FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 2012 GRANT PROCEDURE

            The Board of Trustees of The Ashtabula Foundation will accept Letters of Intent from 501(C)(3) charitable organizations in Ashtabula County seeking grant funds.    Although the Board will review and consider grant requests from all categories at the same time, the emphasis of funding will be with human services organizations that benefit the needy of the county.  The categories to be considered are: Recreation/Conservation; Education; Human Services; Arts/Culture; Religion, and Community Development.

            The Letter of Intent should include the following information:

• A brief description of the reason for your request.
• The dollar amount of your request.
• Are there other sources of funding?  If so, list the other sources.
• Is this project something that must be done immediately, or can it be postponed?
• Rate this project as far as priority to your organization (on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the highest priority).
• How many people will be affected by the grant funding?

 

            The deadline to submit your Letter of Intent is February 1, 2012.  Do not submit a full grant application at this time.  The Board will review all requests, and you will be notified if you should proceed with a complete application packet, or if your request will not be considered.

            If you have any questions, contact the Ashtabula Foundation office at (440) 992-6818 or by e-mail at ashtabulafdn@suite224.net.
