What level of detail is required for the budget narrative?
The budget narrative should provide a detailed explanation of all proposed expenditures for the project. These expenditures should be carefully linked to the goals, objectives, and activities described in the project narrative portion of the application. ED staff will review all information related to the proposed expenditures and determine whether or not the expenditures are allowable (either permitted or not specifically prohibited); allocable (can be directly allocated to your project); and reasonable (costs that would be incurred by a “prudent person”). Any costs not fully described or justified can be deleted from your funding request during the budget review conducted by GCRG staff.
