For your application to be considered, all required documents must be submitted in PDF format. Those documents include:

1. Project budget (using only the MS Excel budget template linked below). Please upload the budget as a PDF with all relevant columns and rows visible.
2. If you are a nonprofit, please upload your organization's W-9 or IRS letter of determination. If you have a fiscal sponsor, please send in their W-9 or IRS letter.
