What is the matching requirement for school-based and community-based applicants?
Applicants must match, with cash or in-kind contributions, at least 10% of the project’s total costs for year one of the grant, 20% for the second-year continuation, and at least 30% for the third-year continuation. Applicants who have received Learn and Serve America funding for more than three years must provide at least 50% of the total program costs (a minimum of a dollar-for-dollar match) for each year. The sources(s) may be federal (non CNCS), state, or local (public or private). In the case of federal sources, the funds of another agency may only be used as match if the other agency permits such use.
