What Happens After Sending A Letter
-
After you send a letter to a foundation, you'll get a response either asking you to continue in the application process or informing you that your organization isn't eligible for funding. A continued application means you'll have to submit a full proposal. A proposal is a full disclosure about your project. Cover the following aspects in your full proposal: organization history, program information, goals of the program and budget.
