Guidelines for Applying for Grants for New Projects 
deadline for submission:  April 1, 2020
​

The application for new project grants can be found at: 2020-21 New Project Application

 Please read through the following guidelines prior to beginning the application.  The link to the application is at the end of these directions. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at FEFGrants@gmail.com
The Primary Applicant
Each application will have one primary applicant who will be the main contact with FEF and the primary contact with any co-applicants. The primary contact will:

• receive all communications from FEF.
• be responsible for providing information to the District Business Office.
• be the primary contact to the FEF Program Committee liaison and will be responsible for sharing all information with all co-applicants.

Working on the Application

• There are two items you need to complete when you begin working on your application:  your name and your email. You will not be able to return to your form or to submit the form without having filled in these fields.
• If you want to begin working on the application and return to it later, it is very easy.  Simply click on the "save" button on the bottom of the page you are on.  Your application will be saved and you will be given a link for how to return to it.  This is the same process you will use when you complete and submit the final application form. Follow these steps:
• Once you have completed your application, you will press 'submit." You will then see a screen confirming that we have received your form. On that screen there will be two links: one is to Edit your form, and one is to get a PDF of your form. 
• You will also receive an email from FEFgrants@gmail.com with the same links.  If you do not receive a confirmation email, please check your SPAM folder as it is likely to be there.
• Save the edit link so that you can return to your form to continue entering information. 
• Follow this process as many times as you need prior to submitting the application.  The deadline for final submissions is April 1, 2020. 
• Once you are satisfied with the final application, you will want to download the PDF from the response screen as it is a good way to save your final application and to forward it to those whose support you need or others you want to see your completed application.
• You can print your application by clicking on the print form button on the last page of the application at any time in the process.
