Grants

The Process

After we receive your completed proposal, your application will be provided to the Grants & Scholarship committee for recommendations. This recommendation will then be presented to the Foundation’s Board of Directors. You will be notified of the WCCF Board’s decision as soon as possible after the board meeting at which your application is considered. The final report is due at completion of the project or approximately one year from the date the funds are received.
