To assist families in the application process, we've listed some tips on how to be sure your application will be considered by our grant committee:
- Make sure you fill in every question on the application; incomplete applications are not considered.
- Detail what you are requesting; give us a link to a website and an exact price, including shipping and accessories if necessary.
- Tell us details about your child and your family; the more information you give us the better. We want to get a good picture of your child and how we can improve their comfort and quality of life if your grant is awarded.
- Provide details about your financial situation, and explain your financial hardships. Please be specific.
- Remember to let us know if you have actively searched other grants. Tell us where else you have applied for funds, grants, and other financial assistance.
