Awarded twice during administrative year (deadlines: February 1st & July 1st)
75% reimbursement of grant amount
Silver Grants (up to $2,000)
Awarded monthly until funding is depleted
75% reimbursement of grant amount
LaMissTenn District Foundation Grants are intended to increase the reach of each funded project by filling a financial gap. Our Foundation does not have the capacity to fund the project in its entirety.
Before applying for a grant, consider your Kiwanis Club’s involvement in the project, including contributions of time, labor and financial resources by your club members, other Kiwanis clubs and/or businesses in the area. Involvement is an essential part of each successful, grant-funded project. Questions? Contact [email protected].
Grants are given during the current administrative year for a New Project or an Existing Project that has not received a Foundation grant.
Community Service Grants are “Reimbursement Grants” in that clubs must show receipts and cancelled club checks or payment documentation of all expenditures for the project, under IRS rules for expense responsibility. Club will be reimbursed 75% of verified expenditures, up to the amount of grant award, AFTER all criteria is met.
No Kiwanis club will be awarded more than one (1) CSG during any Kiwanis Administrative Year. Nor will any Kiwanis club be awarded CSGs for more than two (2) consecutive Administrative Years.
The decision of the LaMissTenn District Foundation Board is final.
CRITERIA TO APPLY FOR COMMUNITY SERVICE GRANT:
Submitting clubs must be “in good standing” with Kiwanis International and the LaMissTenn District District by being current on all dues as well as with the District Foundation by participating in the Annual Club Gift Campaign for the current year at minimum of $5 per member, according to the club roster as of October 1st per Kiwanis International.
