Can private organizations apply for grants from the State Shared Revenue Program?
Arizona law states that a Tribe can make twelve percent (12%) of its total annual contribution to the state in “Distributions to cities, towns or counties…” A private organization can apply for a grant however the application must be made through an eligible city, town or county and be accompanied by a resolution from the appropriate governing body. In addition only applications received by a city, town or county will be considered as official submissions. Applications received by individual organizations will be considered drafts. If awarded, a check will be issued directly to the sponsoring city, town or county who will in turn administer funds to the applicant in order to carry out the proposed project.
