Grant Application
Boone Service League, a community service organization of local women, is currently accepting applications from local non-profit organizations for the annual Boone Service League Grants. Application guidelines are listed below.
- Grants shall be awarded only to non-profit organizations with a 501(c)(3) status and government agencies operating within the High Country and serving the High Country, including Watauga, Ashe, and Avery Counties. Non-profits with board members or presidents who are also BSL members may still apply.
- The total amount of money available for grants this year is $7,000.00. The number of awards will vary based on the amount of funds requested by applicants.
- No award in excess of $1,000.00 will be made to any single organization, in order to help as many organizations as possible. Monies granted must be used for a project or special program.
- Any organization, regardless of being located in our 3 county area, applying must plan to use the funds WITHIN Watauga, Avery, and Ashe counties (i.e. not funding for a national organization or for travel/missions outside of the 3 counties).
- Organizations applying for grant money must:
- Complete the application below by midnight on Monday, March 25, 2013.
- Submit one reference from someone outside of the organization. This may be a BSL member, as long as she is not a member of the applying organization.
- Evidence of 501(c)(3) status must be available upon request.
- Complete the application below by midnight on Monday, March 25, 2013.
- Grant recipients will be notified by the first week of April.
