Do funds that have been applied for from organizations other than PACGDC but not yet received count in the matching funds requirement?
It is philosophically important to PACGDC to leverage matching funds. Groups applying for funding that have funds from the work of their local members are viewed most favorably. It is the best way of creating ownership and accountability in any program or project. At the same time, we recognize that some of the matching funds may need to come from other grant sources. These funds can be included in the application on Form B under the column Funds Available. Please include a notation following the listing stating that the grant is applied for but has not been received to date. In any such case where PACGDC awards a grant to an organization with these circumstances, the grant agreement with that group will indicate that no PACGDC funds will be released until written verification is received that the other funds will be awarded. This ensures that projects have all the funding needed to proceed.
