FACE is accepting applications for 2016 Community Impact grants now through Monday, May 23, 2016. The maximum amount per grant is $1000. FACE is a component fund of the Community Foundation of the Great River Bend. This year, our applicants can use the CFGRB’s online grants application system. Complete, save, and submit your grant applications in one place and have ongoing access to them.
First, an organization will need to create its own organizational profile and login information on the system, if it has not used the online application system previously.
A helpful five minute video of the basic steps can be found at http://www.foundant.com/applicant tutorial.php.
