Fundraisers for families or an individual in crisis is $5,000 max;
Fundraisers for organizations is $1,600 max; and
Hands-On Projects have a $1,600 max.

Quilting Groups in 2009 will receive a maximum of $250.

Finally, our Board is required to fund new and different projects each year. Therefore, a project that has been receiving supplemental funding from our Board for 3-4 consecutive years, may not receive the full amount requested (or any at all), upon the Board's scrutiny.

The ideal format for volunteer hours is 1/2 hour for every $1. For example, if you wish to receive $500, you should have at least 250 estimated volunteer hours in your project.
