Agape Foundation Invites Letters of Intent
The Agape Foundation (www.agapefdn.org) has invited Letters of Intent for the its Board of Trustees Spring 2007 grant cycle. Proposals are welcome from small California-based grassroots organizations working for non-violent social change. Agape funds organizations that are addressing the following issues: Peace, Human Rights, Environmental Protection, Economic Justice, Progressive Arts & Media, and Grassroots Organizing Support. Applicant organizations must be no more than five years old and have an annual budget under $100,000. The foundation also funds the distribution of social issue media, including films, videos, radio programs, compact discs, vinyl records, and books.
Agape has increased its maximum grant amount to $5,000 and has made other changes to the grant application process. In order to provide grantseekers with a faster response to their requests, the foundation now requires that grantseekers submit the Letter of Intent form first. Within seventy-two hours of receipt of the completed form, the staff will either decline the request or ask the grantseeker to submit a full proposal by March 1, 2007. Visit the foundation’s Web site for complete grant program information and application materials. The Deadline for Letters of Intent is January 31, 2007.
Too bad this is just for California! Hope you expand to the midwest!
