What if the planning portion of my project occurs one year and the implementation portion occurs the next year, can I still get funding from the BCAA/Neodata Endowment?
Endowment funds cannot be used for multi-year projects. However, you could apply for funding for the implementation portion of your project in the year that occurs. This would be a Project Support grant. In your budget, you would only list the expenses/revenue associated with the implementation of the project. Or you could apply for Organization Operating Support for your organization which would cover some portion of the operating expenses of your organization and would not be tied to a particular project. See the BCAA/Neodata Endowment application for details. [back to top] Getting Help At first, the task of writing a grant can seem daunting, and the rewards unknown. However, grants do get easier and easier to write once you’ve done them a few times. Consider your first few grants “practice grants.” Purchase our Grant Writing Workbook and check out online resources. BCAA offers two grant writing workshops each year, usually in February and September. Keep an eye out for announcements
