Requesting a Grant

The TPS Mid-Atlantic/US Territories Region will review proposals submitted before each of three deadlines. More information will be available soon.

Applying for a grant is a two-step process:

First, complete a Notice of Intent to outlining your project, its goals, and intended audience. This will enable our regional coordinator to determine if your idea falls within the funding guidelines. If so, you will be invited to submit a proposal before the next proposal deadline.

Notice of Intent

Second, use the project proposal guide to develop a project proposal. The proposal must include a budget and a timeline. Submit the completed proposal and supporting documentation via the online form linked below. You will receive a reply regarding your project idea within a few business days.  When a grant isn’t needed or awarded, TPS regional coordinators will offer advice and assistance to organizations who would like to incorporate TPS methods and materials into their programs, but do not receive funding.
