How to Apply for a NEXT PROPOSAL
DEADLINE: PCF Grants Made in 2007: Spring | Fall PCF Grants Made in 2006: Spring | Fall PCF builds its endowment fund through contributions and bequests. PCF can become a powerful catalyst for local improvements to our community. PCF approves grant requests twice a year -- in April and October. Special grant meetings may be held by the committee if deemed necessary. The PCF makes its recommendations to the Board of the Palisades Citizens Association, which presents them to the association's general membership for a vote. Want a worthwhile neighborhood project for your group, class or troop? Applications need not be complex, but they must include a budget - including named individuals who will be responsible for installation and maintenance, and a budget for maintenance (if applicable). Applications must spell out in detail how the project or program will specifically aid Palisades residents. For example, a service proposal should stipulate the number of Palisades residents who participate or are served. All proposals should clearly describe their novel contribution to the community, explaining the specific need the project meets. All applications must include name and phone/email of someone who can answer questions about the proposal. All contributions to PCF are fully tax-deductible. PCF obtains its non-profit status via its affiliation with the Community Foundation for the National Capital Region. The Community Foundation provides PCF with administrative services including accounting and bookkeeping as well as investment services and other advice. Please consider
making a contribution to PCF to make a real difference in our community
that will be enjoyed for many generations to come.
