Approval Notification
After you are awarded funds:
- There is no guarantee that grants will be awarded to all applicants. Each grant will be reviewed by The Lion Foundation Executive Director and the Chair of the Allocations Committee (which is the Superintendent of Schools) who will make recommendations, as part of the pre-allocations review process, to The Lion Foundation Board of Directors. Recommendations are based on merit, need and available funding.
- If your grant application is approved, you will be notified via email. This email will contain a Lion Foundation tracking number (e.g., “LF0000”) which you will need in order to access your funding. This “LF number” should be referenced in any queries regarding your grant. The email will also contain additional information on steps to take in order to access your funding.
- Funds awarded should be spent by December 30th, unless otherwise noted.
- If funding is not available, or your request was denied, you will be notified by The Lion Foundation. Your application may be put on hold and reconsidered as funding becomes available.
After you are awarded funds:
- You will receive a "GREAT IDEAS" POSTER that you must display near the place your project is being used for no less than 1 year after the grant has been awarded.
- All of your communications about a funded project/program should include a mention that it was funded in part or in whole by a Lion Foundation grant or a specific sponsor/donor.
- All printed materials funded by a Lion Foundation grant MUST INCLUDE OUR LOGO including posters, t-shirts, yard signs, etc.
- Unspent Funds: Any unspent funds remaining in the account at this time will be forfeited and reassigned.
- Evaluation Report Successful applicants are required to submit a brief evaluation report and photos/videos that portray the impact of the grant within 3 months of completion of the program/project. The report should include a brief statement of what was accomplished, from students, data used to assess the program, and photos/videos of the program/project. The Lion Foundation coordinates with the CHSD on its “do not photo policy” lists and uses photos in print and social media material to inspire our donors.
