What qualifies as match funding for the competitive grant programs?
In general, any non-federal source of funds or other material contribution that will benefit the project will be counted as match, as long as the value of such contribution can be clearly demonstrated. Examples of match may include, but not be limited to: • Income generated through the program – through tuition, fees for services rendered, interest collected, etc…; • Administrative and employee costs paid by the applicant, so long as these costs are directly tied to the project; • Direct costs paid by the applicant from non-federal funding sources used to expand program impact; • Donated funds, equipment or services used towards completion of the project.
