APPLICATION
PROCESS
Prospective
grantees should initiate the application process by sending a short two or
three page letter of inquiry to the Program Director. There are no set deadlines, and letters of
inquiry are reviewed throughout the year. The Foundation only accepts full
proposals upon positive response to the letter of inquiry. The letter of
inquiry should briefly explain:
·
the scope and significance of the problem to be
addressed;
·
the organization's proposed response and (if
appropriate) how this strategy builds upon the organization's past work;
·
the specific demonstrable effects the project would have if successful,
especially its potential to effect systemic
(fundamental, institutional and significant) change;
·
how the project promotes change on a national level and is otherwise
related to the foundation's guidelines;
·
the size of
the organization’s budget.
|
We accept
letters of inquiry by email (PDF or Word files only) to loi@normanfdn.org, by fax to 212-230-9849
or by regular mail to the address below. Please use only ONE method; do
not send duplicates. |
All inquiries will be acknowledged and, if deemed
promising, the Foundation will request a full proposal.
Programs seeking funding must be tax exempt
and focused primarily on domestic issues. Prospective grantees who have
carefully reviewed the Foundation's guidelines and who still require assistance
may call the Foundation at the number listed below.
